Most of the schools in our state officially open their doors to the new school year exactly one week from today, August 8, 2007.
And yet, I find myself in the midst of school activities already.
This week, three of my four school-age children will be chaufeurred, by me (who else?), to and from class back-to-school pool parties and pre-season sports activities like *voluntary* volleyball open gym. *Open gym* is just code for: "We cannot officially start team practices until the first day of school, per league rules, but you'd better be there to hone your skills with your teammates". While I agree that these are great for introducing new students to "old" students; all students to the "new" teacher; furthermore, allowing friends & teammates to reacquaint themselves after the horrendously long summer break (all of two months), I am not sure that I'm ready to start the rat race again.
Alas, Five Kids and Life go on regardless of how I feel or if I'm ready.
SEND CHOCOLATE! (preferably Dove).
If I ever post another Blog, it'll be a miracle.

Another new blog header??
I likey. Your variety and apparent mastery of time-management leave me in awe. I didn't even shower today and I sure as heck didn't get dressed until 1pm, but YOU??? You have a spanky new blog.
I'm jealous.
:)
Mastery of time management???
Seriously???
It's been almost a week but I think I sat and messed with the thing for about an hour when I had a MILLION and a HALF other things to do.
But tinkering runs in my family; and I needed to slow down. It's been crazy here this past week.
