だれる心/Laziness

 最近、寒くてだれる気持ちが高まっています。それを回避するため、なるべく外に出ようとは思うのですが、まだ子どもが冬休み中で宿題を見なければいけないし、自分のペースで物事を動かすことができないのが不満です。

 そういった不満をどう解消するかを考える必要があります。学校がないと起きる時間が遅く、結局勉強を始めるのが10時過ぎとかになると、時間が無駄になると感じてしまいます。これは子どもが長い休みの時、いつも感じるジレンマ。次回の長いお休みの時は講習でも取らせるかと考えているところ。

I've been a bit lazier lately since it's so cold and I don't want to be so active. To avoid it, I want to go out as much as possible but since my children are in the break and staying home all the time and I need to watch them do their assignments. Frustrating when I have things that don't work the way I want them to work.

I need to come up with an idea what to do. They get up later than usual when they don't have school. It turns out to be past 10am when they sit at the table to study. This is the dilemma I always have. I want them to sleep as long as they want but it feels like a waste too. What should we do when they have a long break next time.
