I report back to school on Wednesday and I am already in a panic. Not so much for the fact that I have to start getting up at a reasonable time again, but because last year was the worst of my career. Pair that with the fact that I am in the middle of writing a new book, have a column I'm trying to syndicate. These are all great things, but I am worried about how to juggle that with the kids.
With the Princess going into 1st grade it means that both of my kids will have homework. My son, who is going into 4th grade, will have more homework and I am terrified about having to juggle homework with both of them.
Being the uptight, neurotic person I am, I made a plan (it will be posted on my ADD blog tomorrow, for anyone interested) and while i think it will help, I'm still nervous as hell about it. I just don't know what to expect.
I am looking forward to getting back to the daily routine so I can get to the gym, but I wanted to work on cooking more this summer and it just didn't work out. I hate cooking and I suck at it. Plus I have food allergies, which means there will be many nights where the kids eat chicken nuggets and I eat a bowl of cereal for dinner.
I will post an update once things get going, so wish me luck. I think I will either need the luck or at the least, a few Mike's Hard Pomegranate drinks. ;)
