I do not know how people my age have pre-teen children still and don't constantly collapse from exhaustion. Whether it's people who had kids later in life or grandparents raising their kid's kids, if that were me I would constantly be drained. We have B's sisters with us right now and after five hours of them I was ready to just crawl into a hole. They are tiring to say the least. Just so much energy and constant need. Same reason I don't own a dog. Too much for me. Luckily we only have them for the one night. I don't think I could take another full day. How did I do it when the kid was that age? Don't answer that - I already know. I was 20 years younger is the simple answer.
Spent the day doing a one on one session. That was actually okay. The person was very engaged and had good questions. They had a good skill level and they were in a class suited for their needs. Was a refreshing change of pace. The class though has a LOT of material and even with only one student took me over six hours to get through. We finished around 3:30 and from there B and I went to get the girls. On the way back we stopped and visited grandparents, got dinner, came home and ate, then they all played mario party on the big screen. There was a juice incident and I lost a controller which sucks but it is what it is. Then they all watched a movie while I said screw it and went to bed.
This morning I am off to the grocery store, then we entertain the girls for 12 hours or so, bring them back home, and it's the weekend. No immediate plans that I am know of for the weekend. I am waiting for my paycheck to come through so I can pay bills. Other than that, same ol' same ol'.
