Why is it?

Okay you might remember last May where I was dying for school to be over?  I couldn't wait to quit driving all over hell and back every morning?  And would you believe that the school supplies are already out - and have been for awhile.  I've been drooling over them and have even stocked up on somethings that I know disappear quickly. You know, the cheap, Crayola Washable markers in the standard colors?

So I'm getting the teacher lists already and so far we've gotten our first choice for every kid.  Now we're only about 2 weeks out from the start of school. Ada will start to school with Owen and Clara this year.  That removes one more place to not have to drive (yeah!).  I'm just ready for a change of pace and so are the kids.  They miss their school friends and fun things like chess club.  (Yes, that means my chess playing ability is zilch.)  So here's to school!
