I did my exercise routine alone. Janelle wanted to take the day off, and Connor hasn't been feeling well lately. I'm doing a 30 second on-off interval of mountain climbers, jump squats, lunges, push ups, and high knees for 20 minutes. The goal is to eventually get up to 30 minutes (6 rounds) a day, but I'm not even ready for 5 rounds yet.
We finished the puzzle that we had been working on this week only to find, yet again, that we are missing a piece. This was a piece that we knew that we had too. It had a squirrel on it and was one of the first pieces (after the edge) that we identified. Our dogs must have thought it was a real squirrel. Anyway, I put that puzzle away and brought out another one, getting most of its edge in place after Janelle left for work.
The boys and I watched the Karate Kid during and after lunch. It was their first time seeing it, and all of them seemed to like it. The younger ones were practicing crane kicks for a while after that. They had been begging to watch that movie since the song "Sweep the Leg" from No More Kings keeps popping up on my music playlist as I drive them around.
I then went to the school to finish getting some tests created and copied for Monday. I try to avoid going into the school on the weekends, but I ran out of time during the week and didn't have much of a choice. I was there for a little over two hours and, while I got the tests done, I still have more to do.
On returning home, I switched out the red holiday lights (for St. Valentine's day) in the kitchen for green holiday lights (for St. Patrick's day). We still have the multi-colored lights upstairs as they are a cheerful shield against the dark nights. We'll probably take them all down sometime after Easter.
I made dinner so that it finished almost exactly when Janelle got home. After eating, and watching a Deep Space Nine (season 4, episode 1--when Worf joins the crew), I went upstairs to work on the homework for my Walden classes. I fear that some of my irritation might have bled into at least one of my posts. I finished in time to have Janelle cut my hair, after she had cut all of the boys' hair.
A hot shower later, I'm finishing this post with the anticipation of watching an episode of Dark Matter (Season 3, episode 5) with Janelle before heading to bed. I hope to get more deep sleep tonight.
