Not a day of boredom like yesterday. I took my boys tutoring with me today then met some friends for a playdate. The boys asked me about the days plans yesterday, and just before going to bed and again three more times before 9:00 am! Boys and men need to hear the schedule repeated at least five times before it sinks in. In the car, on the way to our friends house, my son asks, "What are we doing again?" So, I tell him and the other boys listen. Then, five minutes later, "Mom, are we going to the park with our friends, I know I just asked you, but I might ask you again later." Oh for goodness sakes, I had to repeat it again. We have three white boards in our kitchen that has the months schedule, the weekly schedule and a daily one. Yet, I still have to go over what we are doing and when.
My husband calls around 4:00 pm and asks, "So, honey, what's going on tonight?" I told him the day before our sons' soccer schedule, who's driving who to what field at what time. I graciously tell him the evening schedule and he repeats it back to me wrong, and we go over it again. Lord help me, stay sane, and if I get Alzheimer's disease, it'll be OK, cuz I'm just . . . . repeating myself!
