Blog Postponed Due To Back-To-School Hell!

Aug25

Where, oh where did the summer go?  My kids go back to school tomorrow!  TOMORROW! I haven't gotten their supplies, checked to make sure they've got a decent enough wardrobe, or gotten them back on track with the school night bedtime routine.  Ack! 

In my defense, I've been waiting (and hoping real hard) for my Walgreen's gift card to come in the mail from MyPoints before going supply shopping.  It hasn't arrived, so I'll have to go today and shell out the cash.  I did have them go through their drawers and get rid of everything that doesn't fit.  A lot of clothes didn't fit.  Thankfully, they really don't need new stuff until the weather gets cooler.  It's always such a let-down for them to get new school clothes they can't wear until a month into school anyway.  And we did start Norah going to bed a a half hour earlier, but not until last week.  I doubt four days of practice is really going to help much.

But the time for back-to-school has indeed arrived, whether I'm ready for it or not.  So the wonderful article I had planned to discuss on why women tend to focus on the negative will have to wait for next Monday's Magazine Motivation.  But it was a good one, and I've got lots to say on the subject.  Hopefully, this blog will return to its regularly scheduled programming tomorrow.  But I may spend the day recovering, so don't be surprised if you don't hear from me until midweek!

I blew off shopping because I thought we'd be switching schools. I gave up and bought the supplies anyway. That mean we'll get the acceptance notice any day now!

I wanted to research this subject and write a paper. Your post what a thousand words would not. Nice job.
