Goodbye Summer

Summer is over…there may be eight days until school starts and the weather is definitely hotter than two hells, but summer, as far as I am concerned, is over. How do I know? When I looked at my Yahoo Calendar this morning and could hardly find a free space for the next month was my first indication. The list was the dead give away. I have a to do list a mile long right now. Yup, summer is over. I can remember days this summer where I hardly knew what day it was let alone the date.

Don’t get me wrong. I am looking forward to the kids going back to school and running this household with a little more structure. I am not looking forward to the juggling act of driving the kids all over creation, keeping up with the house, homework and feeding four mouths on a daily basis. Haven’t I been counting down the days until school started all summer long? I suppose the grass is always greener…
