It might seem a little funny, but I am one of those people who love Monday. It is a fresh start to a new week, and it seems to be my most productive day. It is also the day that the weekly schedule returns to normal. My hubby is back to work, the boys are back to school, and the Miss and I can settle into our peaceful days.

This week I am determined to make it a better one than last week…

Last week there were challenges every single day. I wasn’t feeling too good (seasonal affective disorder), and Dylan was challenging my patience every school morning.

Today started off that way too. I woke up Dylan extra early, in hopes that maybe with an earlier start, the morning would go better. Boy did it backfire on me. He didn’t want to go to school again, and he was doing his best to get out of going. I made him go, and we barely made it out of the front door by 7:30 a.m.

I hope tomorrow goes better.

I am going to start keeping track of the morning tantrums, and see if there are any patterns that I notice. I also have parent/teacher conference coming up soon. Hopefully his teacher and I can talk about it, and see if there is anything going on at school.

As for this afternoon. I’m going to get what I can done, and bake some Brownies too. I need some patience, and good vibes sent my way…
