Time (or lack thereof)

I seem to have had a severe shortage of time this past week. I was a substitute in one 1st grade teacher's class from Monday through Wednesday, then in another class on Thursday. Friday my husband and I both took the day off and tried to get some shopping done.

I've been trying to think of all the ways I could have saved time to do other things and I'm not doing very well. It was hard enough allocating the time I did have to the things I had to do without adding the things I wanted to do. Here's what my schedule looked like this week. There were other things mixed in in the between times that aren't really worth noting, but that had to be done.. not to mention travel times between locations.
