Savvy Scheduling
Wednesday, May 26, 2010
So I’ve successfully survived the first two full days of the kids’ summer vacation. No really, that’s a coup.
OK, seriously, dare I say the first two days went well; and I attribute that to their schedule. I received a lot of great feedback about Friday’s post in comments, on Twitter and IRL, and it’s been really helpful in preserving my sanity. I’m finding that the kids are quickly adapting to the schedule that I set for them and so am I. We’re all liking it so much that I’m going to create a brand spankin’ new schedule for me, too, so that I can stay productive and somewhat stress free in the process. Work smarter, not harder. I like that.
Are there any savvy schedulers out there? I think the key to scheduling is making it realistic, ahem, and then actually following it. Does anybody do that? UnDiscipline moms want to know …

Mine are still in school. I don't set a schedule. We just wing it, fly by the seat of our pants. I think schedules are a great idea with younger children.
My kids have three more days of school left, and I'm looking forward to no schedules!
But what I am doing is making a list of fun things we'd all like to do this summer, and maybe schedule them on the calendar, to ensure I don't forget, and we do it.
We had such a GREAT Spring Break, I'm looking forward to having THE BEST SUMMER EVER!
A schedule for the summer? Oh HECK no! I've been structured between homeschool and public all year and I'm ready to let my hair down. Oh..I don't have any hair. Anyway, it's time to have some fun! Wifey, are you a type 'A' mommie? LOL!
Have a fun summer - schedule or not.
I have no clue how to schedule. I mean, when it comes to scheduling my kids day, I'm good with that. But I need a personal scheduling class for myself. I can't manage to schedule all the things I have to do in a day. It's easy for me to tell other's what and when to do things (i.e. kids and hubby). But I don't have much discipline for myself.
