6 jobs. Oh my. We are 5 people with two jobs and two cars but our three
children are in three different schools in three different towns and none
of them have buses. (One is ostensibly a walker and one is at a private
middle school north of here and the other is at a private preschool south
of he those two schools start at the same time and the walker's school
starts half an hour LATER, as IF he could stay alone then!)

To be honest, I've gotten fairly accomplished at being in two places at
once. (Practice practice practice.)

Only 2 of the jobs have a reasonably consistent schedule -- the rest of
them change from week to week. Someone just called to ask if I knew
what everyone was doing next Thursday evening. Lordy, I barely know
where everyone is RIGHT NOW!

Yikes. We're not nearly as bad off. We have:

5 people
2 pets
1 church
2 cars
1.5 jobs
1 school

(so far, so good, eh?)

The problem lies in the extracurriculars around here (French,
chess, dance, soccer, piano for one; French, chess, dance, and
soccer for the other). And, of course, Nutcracker is off and
running again. Fortunately, this is the last weekend of
soccer. That will make things a *LOT* easier. Well, that
and finishing Nutcracker. The other saving grace is that
all of the kids' activities are in our town. None of them
require that we drive more than 10 minutes or so; otherwise,
the commuting would kill us.

Best wishes,
Ericka
