Captain Science went to sleep around 10:30 last night. Tank held out until 11:00. Babypie stayed awake until a whopping 1:20am.
If that wasn’t enough to get a Smrt Mama off to a slow start, my “smart” clock decided of its own accord that this morning was the right time to “fall back” for Daylight Savings Time. Yes, I know that the Brits are doing it, but our lovely government decided to extend it for the US, and YOU, stupid clock, do reside in the United States.
So here we are, starting the school day an hour late, because I didn’t think to look at another clock to confirm the time and my stupidly tired eyes didn’t notice the computer clock. Is this the perfect start to a new month, a new school week, and a new round of NaBloPoMo or what?
As Halloween fell on a weekend last year, our first year homeschooling, I haven’t ever had to deal with the Halloween Hangover before (my own, not just theirs). I was hoping that after last week’s drag-ass pace, that we’d be leaping forward into a great new energetic week. Alas, Monday is starting in an almost clichéd fashion. I’d kind of like to shoot the whole day down.
Are you and your kids nursing a Halloween Hangover? How do you cope on a homeschooling Monday after a Sunday Halloween?
