Last few weeks of school

Well it is the last few weeks of school and the big exams are over. I am very happy for that. Now we just have to get through the end of year concerts, award ceremonies, field days and the like. OH and one field trip that should have been scheduled much earlier in the year. The kids would have appreciated getting out of the classroom half way through the year more then at the end. It’s whatever though. My little guy is happy to be going at all.

Once the last day of school comes and goes, then it is time to find ways to keep them entertained throughout the summer. Weekends are the easy part, but during the week is going to be trying for my nerves. Wish me luck !

End of summer sales

I really love the end of summer sales. Not just back to school, but the basic end of season sales. Everything they have been pushing all summer long goes on deep discount and I can stock up for next summer without worrying about what I will need. I just store it in the garage in the summer container and voila! I have everything I possibly need. How is that for planning ahead? Doing my little happy dance now.

End of summer is near

Well the end of summer is near. It is almost time for the kids to go back to school and then right after that the weather will change and start to cool off. It will be time to put away the flip flops and dig out the boots and jackets. I love wearing my boots, but I always miss my sandals. I can’t believe that autumn is so close. It seems like summer just got here and now it is almost gone.

Where did the time fly to? I have no idea, but I think I had better make the most of what is left of summer. Perhaps a couple of trips to the sand bar down at the river, or to the creek bottom where we gather to swim. I refuse to let anymore of summer get away from me. So I am out of here to go find something to do. Later Gators.
