Today is the second day of school and after doing all the washing and packing at night, it was time to get everyone ready for school and work on time. I must say that it is a real struggle because there is a bottleneck - 1 toilet! Longer term, it is just not sustainable to have 1 toilet for 4 people.
So we were all done and out of the house by 8:11 in the morning. Then we headed off. Decided to take the slightly shorter route and that saved us a bit off time although the walk is not as pleasant. If it is just one adult taking the kids to school, I will walk the longer way.
Then, we reached the school at 8:31. So it is about a 20 minute walk. It is 3 times as long as what it was previously and a much more intense walk but I think it is manageable. Hopefully as the kids get older, the walk will get more pleasant and also faster. Traffic lights are a big variable but I would much rather cross at them given the state of traffic and driving here.
