Sometimes it is hard to visualize my schedule, and with as snoopy as Dilbert has been lately (back to opening my mail? Asking whether or not i "need" my PO box? telling me i need to leave ID, etc in the car at my parent's house when we go to the football game because he doesn't like my purse?) I refuse to put it anywhere he's likely to run across it - like my google calendar. *RollEyes*

So starting here. I might end up with a Storm calendar on google because I could put it on my phone but he doesn't have access to it. Me? Paranoid? You know you can be paranoid and they can be out to get you...

Kids at school:
Leave house at 7 - but this often gets later if they're not ready... Return to house by 730.
Leave house at 2 for pickup (1 on Wednesdays) School ends 2:25 (1:25 W) and during good weather we play on the playground before going home except Mondays. Return home 3:15 (2:15 W). Unless a playdate is planned...

Monday:
8:15-9:15 yoga (projected to start in October in East Moline) Guessing I'd be gone from 745 and go directly to the Y afterward.
10:15-11 PiYo (B'dorf Y)
11:10-12 Silver Sneakers Circuit (B'dorf Y) New class for me but I've subbed for it before and my boss is burned out a bit. Giving her a break through the school year and she promised to fill in for me if I needed it.
4:30-6 Gymnastics for Tempest (Milan) Leave at 4, Dilb picks up kids and they return at 630ish and I go directly to yoga.
6:30-7:30 Yoga (independent, downtown D'port)
Other activity 8-late: Writer's Group, Book Club, used to try to throw yoga in but the studio moved too far away from my class, and the kali option is just late.

Tuesday:
9-10 Yoga (West Y) Technically I have to end this class early for the drive over to the other Y. And I often still start that class a bit late.
10:30-11:15 Silver Sneakers Yoga (B'dorf Y)
11:20-12 Tai Chi for Parkinson's (B'dorf Y) - But I only teach this once a month. Shooting for last Tuesday of the month.
4-4:45 Swimming (september only so far. Twice a week class and it is overwhelming at the moment and we haven't gone yet)
8:15-9:30 Krav Maga (usually starts closer to 830) I stretch after, and generally leave by 10, home around 10:15 or 10:20. Ish.

Wednesday:
8:15-9:15 yoga (East Moline)
11:15-12:15 tai chi
8:15-9:30 Kali (usually home around 10)
Dance? Looking at 4-4:45

Thursday
9-10 Yoga (West Y)
4-4:45 Swimming
8:15-9:30 Krav Maga

Friday
I try to attend 9-10 yoga downtown at studio
6-8 Game night at church

Saturday
9-10 yoga (B'dorf studio)

Sunday
9ish kids' program for "our whole lives" like sex ed and then with homework to talk to parents
10-11 Church + Religious Education for kiddos
After we socialize... .
5:30-6:30 ?New Tai Chi Advanced (every other Sunday at South Park Mall)

Weekdays I try to get everyone up around 6:15, even though I'm in bed and not yet asleep around 11pm midweek. That Monday evening time frame seems like a great one to exploit for editing, etc, since I'll no longer be able to do most of my activities. Writer's Group that I originally started with a couple years ago is changing their hours from 5:30 to 7:45 to be at the library, but that won't work for me. Ever. Between Milan gymnastics and then my other class, I couldn't even get to the library before it closed. We have a splinter group, but they've now cemented the writer's group to the first and third Mondays, and the other group is on the alternating Mondays, though I should ask them because it seems like that would not conflict if we didn't even start until 8pm, and half of us can't go to the other group now. I'll have to talk to them at some point in the near future about that, or even switching days.

Every day i should be practicing: tai chi, yoga, kali, krav maga. I do not. I'm attempting to change that, but it's a slow process. Part of it is grounding myself in what I can and cannot do. I'm also looking at how i throw in housework and writing duties- like my 750 words and all the reading for ICON.
