School starting soon

Sigh... School will be starting soon and I am not looking forward to it.

My children are enrolled in a Public virtual charter school and therefore they do their school at home. The start of school signals SO much more to fit into an already tight schedule. :( I think it is the best choice in education for them, but after four years of doing it, the summer isn't nearly long enough to recharge my batteries and burn out looms.

I am putting off doing anything in relation to preparing for this school year. I did send back last years materials and cleared out the art supply cabinet, but I haven't bought any school supplies yet. I keep telling myself I am going to wait until they are clearanced after school starts, but I really think it is just my way of procrastinating. lol

The boxes of new school books will start arriving next week and school starts September 2. I am SOOO not ready!

I also need to take some online courses myself to get continuing ed hours for my IBCLC recertification in 2012, I have my classes all picked out and it will cost me $700. Not bad spread out over 4 years, but finding the time for MY studies will be challenging. At least it is a topic that interests me. :)
