Sometime since Tuesday evening, a dresser drawer has been emptied! It had to have been after she discovered what I had done, since I looked at all of the drawers Tuesday night before I did it.
Tonight I cleared off the shelf above the "desk" (ok, it's a door across a couple of bookcases) in "my" bedroom, and moved the DVD cases that were around the room onto it. I still have to go through the stuff that was on the shelf. Some of it is W's, I'll be gathering it all up to her to her at one time. Anyway, the rearranging has begun.
She finally got home tonight, she had taken the kids to Rocks and Ropes after their teacher conferences. They were whipped, so it was probably good for them. She said we had to sell the house, because the kids are not being challenged in school. I have to figure out how this works, since we are theoretically in the best school district in the area. I only option would be one of a couple of really good charter schools. But, I am not at all convinced that changing schools is the best thing for them. I just listened. I didn't say we could or couldn't sell the house. I didn't try to "fix" the problem. I think I will just keep listening! The good news is the kids are doing great in school. The bad news is they are bored, the teachers know they are bored, and it doesn't sound like they really have a plan to deal with it. (BTDT, myself, I just read a lot!). They are really well behaved kids right now, hopefully the boredom doesn't mess that up! I will keep watching and listening!
I am sorely tempted to do something this weekend, but maybe rearranging the room counts? I don't think W works at all this weekend, so things will be a bit uncomfortable around here. I may have to play that by ear!
