Your post should have come with a disclaimer in Bold to the effect that
while
this is a "typical" day for your family it's not what you'd be doing every
day and "typically" leads to exhaustion and a need for a restorative day. I
envision some poor newbie mom out there who signed off the list convinced
she
just doesn't have the stamina to "do unschooling." :) >>


Even the "off" days seem like a lot when you sit down and think about what
you did. Heck, just getting them both dressed and to the store was a major
accomplishment today. Some days are better than others -- whether we do much
or not.

Hi Deborah and all

You said-

<< I think it's valuable
to look at what is going on as a flow of days, some active, some
contemplative, some bookish, some sleepy... >>
Yeah, I agree. And I certainly hope I didn't scare anybody away. That's why
I said in the beginning of my post that the afternoon I was doing all this
running I kind of wished somebody would ask me what my day was like.
I was probably boasting a little and boosting my own self a bit knowing that
I had gotten through that day!
So, I guess that was not my typical day...although as my kids grow and pursue
different interests, my days definitely are getting busier!
Loved your comments-
