Half the Summer I looked ahead to the lazy days of Fall when K would be back to school and I could have some time to myself. When I could nap, luxuriate in quiet, have long lunches or read a book...
What was I thinking? What sort of bizarre dreamland was I living in and how is it even possible that I am ten times busier now than I was weeks ago when I spent all day with a 6 year old shadow?
On those long past summer days we slept in. We ate leisurely breakfasts. We played. We colored. We frolicked and blew bubbles! Now we get up at 6:30 in the morning, scarf down food, rush to get dressed, to make lunches and scramble out the door in an early morning mental fog.
I don't get to go straight home and relax. No nap time. No long lunches. My task list is ever growing... Oh summer won't you please come back.

I know what you mean. Though I have Misses E and M home right now as they're ill with bad coughs and colds and have a fever. It's nice to have them home, but I'd rather it was without the green stuff. ;D
Ditto.
I had big PLANS for the fall, but every day speeds by...

Oh God. I still cannot believe I have power.
Everything else is just gravy.
