Day 1944. Yesterday Randy took the kids to kindergarten, while I lay back down for an hour until my alarm woke me up at 9:30. I taught from 10 to 11 am, then got ready to leave the house. Randy and I took the subway for three stops to go buy a Christmas tree there. We always buy it at that place, as the least walking is involved. I picked a tree quickly, then the guy put a net around it and helped tie it to Randy's cart.

Day 1942. This morning I helped with the kids, then lay back down for a little while. At 9:30 my alarm went off as I had a student at 10 am, followed by another one at 11 am. Randy had the first of three therapies for his foot. From there he went straight to Tammy's and Emmy's kindergarten to pick them up, then he called and said he could go get Sammy as well, even though I was gonna pick him up later.

Day 1941. It's the last week before Christmas, and it's just as busy, if not more.

On Monday Sammy had his first horse therapy session since this summer. That meant that he stayed home with me, when Randy left with the other two at 8:30 to take them to kindergarten. It also meant that there was no sleeping for me, being alone with Sammy.
