Day 358 - Thursday December 6, 2012

Mark offered to stay at home and help with things while I snuck away to see Ginny Wood for an appointment.  I decided that with twins coming I'd better take care of myself so I don't get any more worn out!  It was very nice to have an appointment and also very nice to have some adult conversation that didn't involve my teaching someone something!  At times my life is reminiscent of the days when I had all the kids at home and I was homeschooling.....each child sitting around the big table while I ran from person to person answering questions about the subject they were working on and always trying to think of the best thing for each one to help them learn the most.  By the end of the day I was exhausted!  It is always nice to see Ginny and she is always so supportive of our family--thanks Ginny!  When I got home I jumped right back into the routine and by evening I told the family that I was going to bed at 7:30, which I did!  Bridgett also went to bed and we both just crashed.  I amazingly slept until 6:30, which is late for me--eleven total hours of sleep!  I woke up tired but not exhausted like I had been feeling.  Bridgett slept until 8:00 so she was tired as well!  Needless to say we didn't get anything extra done today, which I need to be doing to be ready to help Jenn.  But, tomorrow back to the grindstone!
