I’ve been trying to get some things in the house organized and get my children to do their regular chores without me having to yell or tell them anything and it’s just not ever working to make that happen without me getting very, very frustrated.<\/p>\n
Mostly of all it’s this house that is too small, not enough places for organization, and a husband who just doesn’t get things completed that need to be to ‘move on’ either with this house or to another one sooner than later.<\/p>\n
My boys have too many Bionicles. They don’t think so, hubby doesn’t think so really, I thought so years ago and any sort of curb on them that I’ve instituted has gone totally by the wayside. We don’t have enough rooms for the children really, no room to store all those silly lego creatures. I try and get them motivated to do schooling and it’s more than I can manage and time crunch is coming up soon that they HAVE to buckle down and do it with September right around the corner.<\/p>\n
I wanted to ‘get ahead’ with the house and education and it’s just not working at all. I’m so sick of it and I have no idea how to get anyone motivated any more, and even my computer makes me crazy, as I type sometimes it’s trying to catch up like right there the words just don’t print as I type and delete and backup are slow, and I have no idea if why, it’s actually done this forever, since I’ve had it and maybe I should just throw this stupid HP Pavilion tx2500 out the door since it’s just a nice touch screen computer that is a hassle to type on, fine for browsing, but most typing?????
