And when my kids got them, ugh. Your unicorn is still there, just temporarily incognito is all. ;) I hated book reports with a passion! And when my kids got them, ugh.

I know all too well just how painful that is. The unicorn did show up today, but he crapped all over your floor just like I told him not to. :)

I hope today goes surprisingly smoothly - with lots of rest in the evening at least!

We spent years, YEARS relaxing on the weekends only to discover that when kids come along, weekend and relaxing are juxtapositions? Oxymorons? You know what I mean. Painful. Monday is now my favorite day - back to routine and a schedule, rather than cramming everything you can into the weekend, never sleeping late (like past 8 late, that is) and still not getting it all done. So Happy Monday to you tomorrow! :) This is why I hate weekends, almost violently.

We have a fourth grade book report due here on Friday. Hubby leaves tomorrow for a week long business trip. I had him sit down with son to work through a plan for book report. We'll see how it works. Fortunately, Dad is going to have two major pieces done tonight before he leaves. Good luck. We have a fourth grade book report due here on Friday.

The Day of Rest Without Guilt--it's so important, yet the without guilt part is so hard! And then you have days such as today when you really don't even get the rest part of it. I hope you can do all you're doing with as much of a restful perspective as possible, then get a true day of rest in here somewhere soon! I think you’re onto something here, Jen.
