WHG: Chasing that rabbit with the pocketwatch

[workinghardguy]

I texted W today to confirm that she is getting the kids to school tomorrow and letting her know I am leaving earlier than normal. So yes, I'll be out of the house before it's time for the kids to leave.

might have helped him catch up with homework tonight

Except that's not how it goes... he can't move to the next book until he reads the current book three times, does his flashcards, and gets his form signed and returns the current book. Then he gets the next book. The expectation is one book per day. Though I realize the world won't end if he misses a day and falls behind a book or two. I know there are other kids in the class who will fall behind too. I just don't want my S being that kid if he doesn't have to be. Though I suppose if he is that kid and it makes him mad (which it will) he'll bug mom to follow through more.

I think it's the stress as far as the sickness. GB... it's not the nights, or not exclusively. She was constantly sick before the nights and during the nights. Of course, her non-work "night schedule" probably plays into it too. However, she's always had crappy health when she's under stress. Tonight she's running a 101 fever... so clearly she has something.
