End of Summer
Labor Day is usually the official end of summer...so we are entering the Labor Day weekend...and I am so ready for the school year to start. That's why seasons are so great...there is a time and a place for them, and when they end you are so ready. Today I cleaned the grout in my kitchen and dining room and cleaned the leather couches and moisturized them. So that completes my list of things that I wanted to get done this summer. I made a list that I wanted to finish around the house before school started, and I have completed it and now I am ready to move on to the school year. I used to school in the summer until a friend of mine who has eight kids told me that summer is the only time you get to clean your closets out. So I now take the summer off as a mental, emotional and physical break, and I am so glad. It gives everyone a breather and then we are in the right mind when we start again. And of course I was able to complete a lot of tasks that I would have never been able to finish while working with the kids on their school work. Every inch of my house was touched and changed. I purged files, went through closets, painted, cleaned off shelves and now the tile and the couches. So, I feel like I really accomplished a lot. So, I am relaxing a bit more this weekend and getting ready for my two kindergartners and one six grader...and one three year old who wants to be included in everything. I am posting a picture of my sun girl...couldn't she be from fifties?
