After taking Kiki through heavy traffic and construction zones all the way down to Provo where she got immunized, I then hauled her back home and made her do homework until bedtime. She was not pleased with me. Hopefully this experience combined with Saturday’s experience and the experience I expect tomorrow and Wednesday will teach Kiki not to dodge homework all term and then try to get it all done in four days. Fortunately Janci came to the rescue again. She sat with Kiki all afternoon and kept her on task when Kiki distracted herself every 30-60 seconds.
The day was also filled with other assorted chaos. I was tired and snappish with my kids all afternoon because I was not happy about immunizations or piles of homework either.
At least I made some progress on my current story and I was able to say some useful things to a writer friend. That felt good.
