Writing Every Day in May -- Day 15: My Day
Today's Prompt is a day in my life as told in pictures. I thought I would post as I go...Good morning:6:00 am: Before brushing my teeth, I go and push this special button.7:28 am: Making lunches -- usually at the last minute and always frantic8:22 am: Breakfast, Good Morning America, and Blogs 10:30 am: Work at my kids' school -- I work in the cafeteria and let me tell you, if you want to experience children in their natural environment, spend some time in the cafeteria!11:50 am: My daughter comes into lunch (Sonny-Bunny was with his Dad on a field trip or I would have given "equal" time). The times that my kids come into the lunchroom make me happy and worth doing this very thankless job.1:00 pm -- A little reading. I have the pleasure of serving as a reading assistant volunteer. I work with a lovely girl who has grown so much in her reading. It warms my heart each week.1:45 pm Lunch... finally. Leftovers, yes. But yummy leftovers!2:15 pm -- A "few" dishes were waiting for me3:10 pm -- The after school backpack dump4:00 pm -- Laundry!5:15pm: Homework6:00 pm: Dinner -- I love how our table is surrounded by windows. It makes me feel like we are eating among the trees.7:00 pm: TV and time with Little Diva. There may have been cuddling and silliness involved.8:00 pm: "Get off the Minecraft. It's time to get to ready for bed..."8:10 pm: "Okay, it's time. Get off the Minecraft. Now, please."8:15pm: "Put down the phone now! It is bedtime. I mean it or no Minecraft for a week!"8;30pm StorytimeAnd after four stories, ten songs and a half hour of back scratching and well, this...9:45pm -- Finally!So there's my day. I'm not living on a Red Carpet or in Cannes, or well, even a Target commercial. But it's my life and this is my day.And of course part of my day is participating in the challenge by Jenni at Story of My Life.
