Homework (trials & excuses)

Started Shimelle's Pretty Paper Party class today & she gave us some great sketches & told us to use our scraps...So these papers are pretty familiar, or at least the opposite side is (LOL). I loved the idea of doing something everyday that we don't think about capturing & homework made sense for me today.

Journaling on left is list of common excuses:

My Stomach Hurts, It's too Hard, I don't want to, I don't have any, I left it at school, That's next week's homework, It's not fair, Your homework is easier than mine.

And on the right journaling says:

Ry if ever there was a "work avoidance specialist" you are it! You spend more time & effort avoiding & trying to get out of homework than it takes to do it. Your teacher & I have worked together to come up with a positive reinforcement program...with some great rewards for you, I love to sit beside you & do my "Homework" (exercises from my Nepali study book) at the same time. But you've got to actually sit down & DO THE WORK!
