- Bed times. For the first three quarters of the school year (ok, maybe the first half!), I'm all about that bed time life. Come June, it all flies out the window. How do you expect me to put my boys to bed at a decent hour when it's still borderline light out?
- Proper school attire. What's wrong with wearing basketball shorts and a wrinkly shirt to school every day? At least it's clean!
- Keep in touch parents. I'm all for a good play date. But, chances are if we haven't had a play date during the school year, we won't have one during the Summer. I'm not a day care center. We'll see you next year. Enjoy!
- Well rounded breakfasts. School day breakfasts consist of cereal, bagels, muffins or something to that affect. Non-school day breakfasts are a free for all until mama wakes up. A little potato chips in the morning never hurt anyone, did they?
- End of school year festivities. I love volunteering at the boys' school. Always have, always will. But please remember that I have three of them. I'm not burning all of my vacation time to attend every single party. Sorry! Sending in goodies is my other way of "volunteering".
- Running low on supplies. We may have about 4 crayons, 3 markers, and half of a glue stick left. Scissors? No son, just tear it with your hands. I refuse to shop for anymore school supplies until September.
- Homework. Just stop. Please. I don't even know what day of the week it is anymore. I sure as heck can't help No. 1 figure out equations.
- Friday folders. Really? Another stack of papers to sit on my kitchen table until the next time I Windex it.
- You can't wait for Spring sports to end. Once they do, our crazy schedules slow down...just a bit...until August. Then it's football time!
- LUNCHES!!! If I have to pack another lunch, I may just go crazy. Seriously, what's wrong with school lunches? It might not be so bad if everyone could just like the same type of friggin' sandwich, but nope. Not my boys. No. 1 eats a jelly sandwich, No. 2 a bologna sandwich, and No. 3 eats a half a turkey sandwich. Ugh!
Stay tuned for "Top 10 Signs You're Over Summer Break". I'm sure it'll be here before we know it!
