    Christina started camp at the Y today. I wasn’t sure how she’d like it, but she came home excited that she was the gagaball queen. I’m so glad she enjoyed it. Now Robin needs something to do.

    Today wasn’t really different from any other, but I found it so draining. I did some minor damage to my car, which is frustrating. But… Robin had a good tumbling class. She is moving on to level 3 skills next week and I think she’s excited. The cheer practice afterwards was not as fun. Coach ended practice early, angrily and abruptly, when something wasn’t working the way she wanted it to. Robin wasn’t even sure what it was. Oh well. Try again tomorrow.

    I didn’t realize how addicted to the iPads the girls have become. They literally don’t know what to do with themselves without it and will do almost anything for a fix. Withdrawal is real – when I cut them off, they immediately started fighting – truly hurtful things were said. I did at least set this boundary today: no one gets any extra iPad time at all while I’m working. All accrued time will be reviewed and adjudicated after I’m done working. And now they need to look up the word adjudicate.

    I have overloaded myself with responsibilities and the stress is overwhelming. Even the smallest tasks seem difficult. I’m hoping the three-day weekend coming up is a chance to slow down a little.

    Took my bruised and battered leg on an easy walk around the neighborhood and now it’s pulsating. Today’s remaining goals are cleaning the bathroom and playing the Harry Potter game. Not bad for a Sunday.
