Aside from unpacking, I took Bub to the local home school park play date last week. There was only one other mother by the time we got there but she was friendly and told me that actually, a lot of the group meets before the posted time. So this week I'll definitely try earlier and this way I can bring Itty Bitty. I also went through Bub's home school calendar to do a little planning and putting in reminders, hopefully it helps (I guess we'll see). Yesterday morning I took him to try a piano class. He liked it so he's going to start next week with a slightly older class (5-7 year olds). It's without two little stuffed animals and some gimmicks, but it will move faster and I think that will be good for him. For the class he tried yesterday, they learned about low and high notes. Once the novelty of the actual class wears off, I could see Bub complaining about the pace of the class. I really liked the instructor. She seems to be a positive person and understanding of little kids but was still able to control the class.
Yesterday Hubby cleaned his side of the office, so my side (which is a desk and a cabinet, it's a smaller "side" than his) looks like the mess now. I cleared the bulletin board before we left for vacation though, so at least that's not a mess.
Tomorrow is Martin Luther King Jr. day so I want to read some text out of one of Bub's books, but I'm not sure how much of it he'll understand. As it is, I'm not sure how much he can understand that the Internet and cordless appliances did not always exist. Tuesday we'll have a play date, Wednesday the park date, Thursday a music class, and around that, fitting in the regular schooling--we have to restart Mandarin, and I'm pretty sure I've forgotten it all!
I've barely had a chance to do any knitting or reading (in fact, I've positioned my knitting so that it's staring me in the face, accusingly) but I can't seem to figure in time for it anymore. And I had plans!
