Bygone Lazy Days of Summer

School started today at the Wilson household. I call it a "soft start." I'm not introducing our full curriculum until next week,  but I'm laying down the rules, getting a feel for what needs review, and learning how to adjust our schedule. Today I found out:
1. I need to schedule more time for breakfast.
2. I need to schedule more time for getting ready before breakfast.
3. I need to prepare more at night.
4. The boys keep trying to cut recess short. (What?! I don't think they know that when they come back inside, more schoolwork awaits them. Mwahaha.)

In conclusion, if I could just go to bed at 11 pm and get up at 1am, I might have this routine in the bag... at least for a day or two before I collapsed from exhaustion.
