Let’s talk about schedules, ok

by Jerri Ann

Regardless of whether you homeschool, take your child to a public school or daycare/preschool, chances are you have a schedule.  So, I’m going to try to elicit some comments from the readers here about their schedules. 

I know that most of us make our schedules as a result of the way other events in our life are scheduled.  Obviously if you take your child to public school or daycare/preschool and you work outside the home, you have to get moving so everyone is at the desired location at the appropriate time.  If you are like me and you work from home, it is a little easier because I have the option of getting dressed, taking the kindergartener to school and then running errands before I return home to work.  Or, I can take the kid in my pj’s and come home and work from home until later in the day when I run errands and get dressed to pick up my child at school.

So, for me, these schedules are obvious that there are so many outside factors that interfere with schedules that most of us simply work around someone else’s schedule.

However, as I mentioned, the week of Labor Day, we will be taking Walker’s kindergarten lessons with us to the beach.  His teacher said she would get it al together and we could work through it.  She wasn’t at all worried about him missing a week.  My question for you, and mostly those of you who home school or have in the past, or even those who have taken a vacation and taken your child’s work along to do, is how do you do it? 

What kind of schedule to you go buy?  What do you suggest we try?  Am I delusional about the whole process in the first place?  Just give me your best advice.
