Insanity: Summer 2014 Edition

I've been frustrated in my attempts to make a Summer Schedule because there are so many variables, so I thought I would try a weekly schedule instead.  

It just made me feel crazy!  Here's the first week:

Summer 2014 Schedule:  May 25 - June 1
6:00 -- Up, Shower, Dress
6:45 -- Breakfast, prep day, kids breakfast, Anna work animals with Daddy.
7:30 -- Kids up, dress, eat, clean up.
8:30 – Go to Pierceville VBS
          Mama and Jimmy run errands in town.
12:00 -- Make lunch and lunches, eat and deliver
1:00 -- naps K and J, A free time.
3:00 -- Up and pool clothes
3:30 – Swim
4:30 – Sno Cones
6:00 -- Home and dinner/dinners
7:00 -- Chores and piano
8:00 -- Play outside
9:00 -- Kids Bed
10:30 -- Bed

Monday:  Memorial Day-Concert at 12:00 at Cemetery
Tuesday-Thursday: VBS
Wednesday:  Piano Lesson 6:30
Thursday:  Anna to TX with Grandma. 
Friday:  Municipal Band 7:30
Saturday:  Betsy and Anna go to Church 5:30

Sunday:  Betsy and Anna 4-H Concession Stand 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

And the second week isn't better at all!

Summer 2014 Schedule:  June 1 – June 7
6:00 -- Up, Shower, Dress
6:45 -- Breakfast, prep day, kids breakfast, Anna work animals with Daddy.
7:30 -- Kids up, dress, eat, clean up.
8:30 – Garden, mow, play outside.
12:00 -- Make lunch and lunches, eat and deliver
1:00 -- naps K and J, A free time.
3:00 -- Up and pool clothes
3:30 – Swim
4:30 – Sno Cones
6:00 -- Home and dinner/dinners
7:00 -- Chores and piano
8:00 -- Play outside
9:00 -- Kids Bed
10:30 -- Bed

Sunday:  Betsy and Anna 4-H Concession Stand 10:00 am - 12:00
Monday:  Betsy’s Class Begins
Tuesday:  Anna Archery 10:00 am Big Pool,  Sign up for Summer Reading, Water Aerobics 6:15-kids to Poppa 6:00.
Wednesday:  Piano Lesson 6:30
Thursday:  W. A. 6:15-kids to Poppa 6:00 
Friday:  Municipal Band 7:30
Saturday:  BETSY PRAXIS TEST 7:30 AM BE EARLY!!!  Double check ID, etc.
AND it occurs to me that I ought to schedule in when we're going to work on Anna's 4H projects, because she picked such hard dresses to make....  I don't know what to do.  It's not like we follow these closely, but it really helps me to remember things like dinner if I have a schedule.  I got completely stuck on week 4, there's no time for dinner in there at all!  :/

Is this normal???

I think this might be our last summer that isn't packed. I'm soaking it up with a relatively loose schedule, lots of reading and hopefully lots of pool time. Good luck!

The week-by-week scheduling seems like a good idea. I'm not sure if it would be helpful or freak me out to do this for us! :) You guys do have a lot going on!
