The negatives: It's every day. This means that fun field trips during the week can no longer happen. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, they'll be gone from 9:30 am until 3:30 pm. I'm freaking out about this! I've been wanting more time, and now I'll have it, but I'm really going to miss them! Guess it's time to start really thinking about getting a part-time job!
Also, I finally signed Izzie up for her gymnastics class this fall, only to learn that the time I picked isn't going to work. I thought the madness of scheduling conflicts wouldn't hit me until at least elementary school! Sheesh!

three days a week isn't so bad. you'll get used to it way quicker than you could imagine. and that leaves you 4 other days of the week to do whatever you want with them. however, your mama instincts are there for a reason. do what you think is best. no matter what you'll have a great year.
no, no. the 3 days a week is when they'll be gone from 9-3:30. tuesdays and thursdays they have school from 12-3:30, and other activities / appointments in the mornings.
I do not do well with lots of structure and little flexibility. I'm already feeling claustrophobic and regretful that we didn't do more this summer (like drive to Colorado, for example)
I've made very conscious efforts to keep at least one day of the week completely free, and I have to let that go now, but I'm not totally ready. I also have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do with all this "alone time". I do, however, know that cleaning is probably not going to be high on my list of ways to pass the time.
