I am trying to decide on the personality of my day. For the last three years, my day has been dictated by school drop-offs, potty breaks, and naps. We had dual schedules. One, the older child moving from pre-K to elementary school. The second, the younger child moving from all-day with me to pre-K. Never were they in the same places at the same time, or starting at the same time, or ending at the same time.
Not any more. There is only one drop-off and one pick-up for both kids. We are in the era of all day school. From 9:10am until 4:00pm, my calendar is mostly open. And I don’t know what to do with myself.
