Back to School? No way!

Time is ticking away fast as I type this. In little over a week my classes start. As I sit here I wonder just where the summer went. It seems to have buzzed by with little regard for my own sense of time. Wasn't it just yesterday that the Spring semester ended and I anxiously awaited the coming summer? Alas, that time has come and gone and I find myself facing another start of the school year.

This time of year is not my favorite, I'll admit. I don't like change very much. I think I've posted about that dislike before. But, it's more that simple change, it's about the hectic lifestyle that seems to overtake my household when school starts back up--homework, grading, activities, practices, early mornings and late evenings, eating on the run and the list goes on. Just thinking of it makes me tired.

Regardless, that end of summer, start of the school year is looming on the horizon. There's not much I can really do to stop it. I guess the challenge is to not miss all the wonderful moments in the midst of the busyness. Yes, the more I think about it, that is the key.

So wish me (and my family) luck as we move forward to another school year.

Much love,
