This morning we got to C’s school at 8:22 AM, eight minutes before school “begins”. We were the first ones to get up to C’s classroom. It was great.

I discovered a couple of things that made us later to school than I even thought. One big thing is that the clock in my car was slow by about 3 minutes. This  explains why I thought we’d  “made it just in time” but in fact we were late by the time we crossed the street and climbed the stairs to her classroom.

Another thing that is helping us be on time (early! wow we were early!) is that Drob is getting up and helping get C dressed for school while I go downstairs and pull together the breakfast. Lunches are being made the night before.

Finally, and this is the really important one — I have to limit my own computer time in the evenings and go to bed at a reasonable hour.

That’s a hard one; but one that I have to face. I have a sort of addictive personality– computer usage is stimulating and addictive to me so I need to make a conscious effort to keep it under control.
