Holy crap, there's a lot of work involved doing nothing all day on a weekend...

That is all.

They've got too many activities. There's only one activity they need to be actively involved in and that's shooting. Get TheBoy started in archery. You too. I think you'll find it to be a lot of fun. Anybody can pull a trigger on a gun and hit the bullseye a half mile away, but try hitting a bullseye with an arrow from 80 yards. :)

No time scheduled for taking a crap? Or scratching yourself? Remember, you volunteered for this job...

OrangeNeck,

I like the way you think... :)

Believe me, I agree they've over-scheduled. Fortunately, swimming lessons, baseball, and Cub Scouts more or less wrap up around the same time, so we'll have a couple of months in the summer to relax...

agg79,

Yeah, I know. I just didn't realize how intensive the overtime would be... ;)

At least they're starting to sleep later on weekends. That's a godsend...

AGW,

Heh.

I *am* trying to figure out when I'll have time to take TheBoy to the range for his first time, too...

Heh- things have changed a bit... We used to have to make our OWN fun, and if we wanted to go to Scouts, we got on our bikes and pedaled away :-) Lots LESS parental involvement in those days.

I sympathize. Especially today.

Weekends are just time to get all the OTHER stuff done, you know: the stuff that you were too busy to do during the work week? Yeah, that stuff. Plus everyone else's, too! Deep breaths, Jay.
