Tuesday: Failure
Today was a very stressful day. My one year old has been very cranky and screams about everything so the terrible twos have come early. My older kids like to run and play which seems to always ends up badly for one of them because they hardly ever watch what the other is doing. I pick the oldest child up an hour after I get home then I have to rush to pick the middle child from their school before they get sent to the office if I am one minute late. With traffic the middle childs school is about ten minutes away and I have less than fifteen minutes from when my oldest child school lets out.
For the past month I have tried the new karate schedule, which means taking them home, getting them to finish their homework, eat dinner and put on their outfits then rushing out to karate within about an hour from getting home from picking them up from school. Invariably I deal with a screaming baby and a middle child who won't finish their peas. Bottom line is karate has to be sidelined at least until we have more time as a family.
Today it rained and I called the babysitter to see if she was able to make it and she said she would, but would prefer not to if it wasn't urgent. I didn't call any potential partners.
The silver lining in today is I figured some things do have to be sidelined until we have more time, and my babysitter will come tomorrow so maybe I can do two days work tomorrow and make it a super success. The good news is I did have conversations with some of my current partners moving my business forward and will have a few game plans to continue. Every day is a struggle to gain freedom.
