'Tis the Season


This fall seems to be careening faster than any I have experienced.  My daughter is in her junior year of high school.  Along with all the school work stands varsity volleyball games, volleyball tournaments, powder puff football, fundraisers, football games and homecoming.  My son is a freshman in high school. New school, new tasks, new schedule, new people, new teachers, and marching band.  Marching band.  He loves it.  I would never have guessed that would happen.  I am very pleased he is enjoying it.  Plus, the band is outstanding.  With all this, there is little time for much of anything else.  Family dinners?  We are lucky we have dinner together at least three times a week.  At least we are all awake for breakfast, before everyone is out of the house by 6:50 a.m.  No wonder my brain feels like it is still in May of this year.  Summer?  I have yet to feel we had one and we are waiting for it to begin.  What is that?  You say it is September 23rd not May 23rd?  Well, in seven more days we will be in October and then I can feel like I am at last in the month of June.  Come on summer.  We are ready for you.
