Day 2017. After Randy had left with Tammy to take her to kindergarten, I lay back down. However, Sammy was home with me as he has horse therapy on Mondays, and Emmy because he was sick all weekend and still recovering, so there was no more sleeping possible. When Randy came home, he got Sammy ready and left with him, while I finally got a chance to catch up on sleep, as Emmy can occupy himself.
After I got up, I went to the kitchen to make lunch. After we had eaten, I sat down at the computer to work.
Once Randy got home with Tammy, I went downstairs with them to do piano practice. Then I made sandwiches for everyone. Just before 4 pm I left the house with Tammy and Emmy. We took the subway, then another one, then walked to the Robbo-Club premises. We were there early. The kids took their usual seats in the classroom, while I tried to go to the empty room, as always. However, the receptionist came to me right away and told me I was not allowed to sit in the room, as they had all their equipment there. I had to sit on a chair by the reception. Just great. I had to get a second chair to put my computer on and asked for a box, which she gave mem, so that my computer was higher. Then I started my 4:30 pm lesson. I was already a few minutes late, but it was my student who always comes late. I even had to ask him after 20 minutes whether he was still coming, and then he showed up. Then I did my French lesson with him. The receptionist sat right next to me, and another parent also sat nearby. They could hear every word I said as there was no other noise around. At least I had my headset on. I was glad, when I was done with my lesson at 5:20 pm.
The kids had their break, while I was teaching, and came into the lobby, but thankfully left me alone. Just before the class ended at 6 pm, I went inside the classroom to find out what they had done. They had done something similar to last time, making figures move on the screen and react, when they hit each other. The kids were all excited about it.
Then we got dressed and left the place to walk back to the subway and take two subways home, where we arrived just after 6:30 pm. I went to the kitchen to cut up fruit, which started our evening routine.
Today was the last day of carnival, and it was Sammy who had his carnival party in kindergarten. The other two had theirs last week. He was excited to put his Mickey costume on, and then I painted his face to make a pretty Mickey Mouse out of him. The other two had already dressed themselves and put their coats and shoes on. I said good-bye and went back to bed.
At 9:30 my alarm went off, and I had to get up to get ready for my 10 am student. I taught for an hour, then went to the kitchen to make lunch. When it was done, I sat down to eat. Then I went back to much-needed work on the computer.
At 12:45 pm Sammy got home, and I took his costume off. He wanted a pudding and sat down next to me to eat it. Randy left right away to get the other kids from kindergarten. I was working on the computer, then Sammy wanted to play with the door, and I moved my computer to my bed, where I continued working.
At 2:15 pm Randy and the kids got home, and I took them downstairs for piano practice. Then I made their sandwiches for dinner and packed my bag. At 2:50 pm the three of us left the house together. We rode our scooters to the subway, rode the subway to the tram, then the tram, then our scooters to the dance school. We were the first ones there today. Emmy changed his shoes, and went inside the dance studio. Tammy stayed on her tablet in the locker room, even though she took one picture with Max once. I was in the locker room for most of the time as well and just went to look a few times what Emmy was doing and to take a picture.
Just before the class ended at 4:15 pm, I waved Emmy out of the class, we all got dressed and left the school. We rode our scooters to the tram stop, got on the tram for three stops, then rode our scooters to the school, where their ball-playing class was taking place. They were getting changed, when Randy arrived with Sammy. We then went inside the gym, and a few minutes later Sammy's friend Michi also arrived. Sammy played ball with him for most of the time we were there. Tammy and Emmy were having fun in their class.
At 5:30 pm the class was over. We got changed and walked to the playground, where they had 10 minutes to play before we needed to head to the bus stop. Then we rode the 5:53 pm bus home. Back home, I went to the kitchen to cut up their fruit and warm up some leftovers for them. After they were all in bed, I sat down at the computer to teach from 8 to 9 pm. Then I went back to work. Now it's 1:30 am, and I have yet to do the dishes.
