The kids are bored to tears with their summer. They are tired of playing pioneers, blocks, slip n' slide and fighting ALL day long. And me, I'm ready to be back on a schedule and ready for the day before noon. I'm just not a good summer mom.

As I raised my kids, before I was a teacher, - just like you, I could not wait for Monday mornings and summer's end.
Now that I am a teacher - I dread Mondays and wish school started more into September.
I guess it all depends on what were doing at the moment.
Love your blog!
Thanks for depressing me. We start our school shopping this week. I have been putting it off long enough. Gotta love how fast it all adds up.
wish you could fit me in somewhere... i could really use a new swimsuit.
This post reminds me of that funny Staples commercial where the Dad is taking his kids back to school shopping with the Christmas music "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" playing in the background. So funny!
