Summer Plans?

The school year is over already. They end early up here… and it sneaks up on a Mom! We’re already on summer break and I still have NO IDEA what the kids are going to be doing while Chris and I are at work each day.

We should probably figure that out soon, huh? We were always shipped off to New York for the summer… now I know why! Summer Camp is expensive & fills up fast!

A few years ago I mentioned to my Mom about the possibility of watching my kids over the summer… like her Mom did for her when we were kids. Her exact response was, “That was a different generation; we’re not going to do that.”

Geez. It’s so hard to find good help these days.

Not cut out for being a tortured artist.

I scrapped this weekend… and geez, had it been a while! Maybe I scrapped because I was less stressed? Well, a teeny-bit less stressed, anyway.. let’s not get crazy and think that I could be completely stress-free.

We found out that the boy does NOT have to go to summer school as feared. He passed the state standardized tests (that I despise but will try to stay off of my soapbox for the moment) and will be heading to Middle School in the fall with no worries that he has to retake the damn thing. Hallelujah!

Maybe that teensy bit of stress off my shoulders let me be a little more creative this weekend?

This was fun. I don’t think that I’m the tortured artist type… how could you possibly be a tortured artist while cutting out little squirrels and owls?
