So once again I did not post the things I wanted to. Here it is already Wednesday and I still have not posted about the October Challenge (which is posted on Mondays).

This weekend, when I planned to catch up on blogging, we ended up rearranging the apartment. Who knew we had so much stuff in our room!  We decided to get rid of stuff we didn’t need, since we were moving things around.  I am still not finished!  I still have some things that are not yet put away.

We moved all of the media (TV and computer) into our bedroom because it is too distracting during the school days. The D has been struggling with his moods lately and I need to limit his TV and computer use. Every day he gets up and mopes around and says all he wants to do is watch TV or a show on the computer. It is getting harder and harder to get him motivated.

This morning, the D stomped for 20 minutes straight before finally deciding to do some math. Big E had already started, so that helped a little.

The only reason that I am even able to post this is that Little E is hurt, so the boys took a short break to sit with him for a bit. Then, I will have to deal with the struggle to get the D back to work.

I want to talk more about my experiences dealing with ADHD, but I can’t seem to find time for that either. The little bit of time I snag for computer use is usually spent blogging about the election. I can’t seem to balance my time lately.

I know this is only temporary, but it is so hard. My time for myself and the things I like to do is where the sacrifice has been made and it is beginning to take a toll on me.

This evening, I am going out with my mother and sister for a little bit, so that will be nice.

Now if only I could kick this cold and start waking up early again to blog in the morning.
