4th grade field trip, starting at 4:44 a.m.

November 16, 2015 by Jessica Leave a Comment

Today I needed to get my son to school by 6 a.m. for a field trip to Jamestown. The only reason I can take a moment right now, in my exhausted state before going up to bed probably at the same time as the kids and possibly before 7:30 p.m. is because he is showing his sister photos of the trip (on our waterproof camera) while she is sitting on the toilet.

Awesome, right?

So I can’t include photos because they are in the bathroom. And if I found my phone to email the few I took there myself, by the time I got them loaded, my window of writing opportunity would be closed.

Suffice it to say that this month has been hit or miss, either tons of writing or just tidbits.

But writing something daily, even if it is only this month, is certainly an improvement!

As is the fact that I woke on my own at 4:44 and that I have gotten up before 6 every day for most of this month with two weekend day exceptions.

It takes time to create a new normal – not always lots of time at once, but little bucket drops over and over.

Thanks to #NaBloPoMo15 for the inspiration!
