This summer unlike most summers where I have a calendar/spreadsheets of camps and trips, this year is pathetically empty. In years past, my mom and most other adults would laugh at my spreadsheet- attempting to manage chaos through excel. LOL!
Due to a combination of lack of funds and lack of time to come up with a grand plan, we are going to spend the summer flying by the seat of our pants. I am excited, slightly nervous and well after watching my kids at the pool this afternoon feeling like this may not be the brightest idea I've ever had.
We'll go to the pool, maybe hit the beach, play on the wii, find indoor spots to cool off in and try NOT to kill each other. Wanna hang with us anyone?? Did I mention we have no air conditioning?
What will my summer really be like? I watch my daughter lounge on her float happily waving at me. Ten seconds later her brother swims underneath and flips her over. Shrieks from the pool. "You are the meanest brother ever!" Brother snickers. "Mom, help!" screams the little one. O gawd- welcome to summer!
