It seems like just yesterday I was rejoicing about not having to spend the next few months waking up a child who is NOT a morning person.
The start to my work day was quiet, without incident and almost pleasant (I mean, who wants to admit going to work is pleasant, after all? LOL).
Now, I am printing out school supply lists and doing Back to School shopping.
Where did the Summer go? I remember a sign on my HS English teachers' desk that said "My favorite months of the year are June, July and August."
Back then (yes, I said "back then....it WAS over 20 years ago that I graduated :), we were actually off for most of June, all of July, and all of August.
Now it seems that the Board of Ed is chipping away at our summer from both ends.
I am not laying issue with that except that it doesn't give ME the much needed break that I feel I have earned by the end of the school year.
Alarm clocks. Bus schedules. Homework.
And so it begins........deep breaths.....
