[quote=Anonymous]I find it hard that I lose a lot of my patience during the day-- but since I teach high school and have a young child at home, the frustrations are different.   I also teach community college classes in the evenings, so I have to leave myself free time for those.

I do all of my planning and grading at work- every single bit of it.  I'm likely to get disorganized or lose things if I start taking things to and from work.  It helps that I have only 2 preps, and I realize this is different from an elementary school classroom teacher who has to plan different things for the entire school day.  It also helps that I'm stuck at work additional hours in order to teach the evening courses, so I don't have to bring things home.

My freezer is full of meals that just need to be reheated.  That way I can cook on the weekends and on days when I get home at a reasonable hour.  DH and DS can heat up leftovers or eat food from the freezer.   Cleaning and laundry pretty much only get done on the weekend.  I'm considering hiring a house cleaner for that reason.  [/quote]
