Tomorrow, my kids finally go back to school after the 2 week break they had for the holidays, and my husband will go back to work without having a long weekend at the end of the week. I am a little relieved because now, I will feel like my daily routine will get back to normal. Any one else feel like this?

I know how you feel for sure. It just does not feel the same when there is not that structure. We ended up sleeping in late so my day felt wasted on sleeping. Plus I did not get my alone time to get all of my housework done. Now I have to play catch up on some of my housework.

I went from regulalrly getting up at 6:30 a.m. to getting up at 7a.m. or 7:30 a.m. on the days I had to work. On the days I didn't have to, I slept in way to long and felt that my days were half wasted. With every body going back to normal routines tomorrow, I feel that I may finally get things accomplished.

I'm feeling just the same way! I love having everyone home, but I really need to get back on a cleaning schedule. I also need some regular sleep habits. We've been staying up too late and having trouble getting moving in the morning. It was a good break and just the right amount of time.

I didn't realize how much I appreciate a little quiet time during the day too! How about you?

I agree. Their break was not too long nor too short. It gave us all a chance to falter from routine for a while, but I am ready to get back on track.
