Back to school sales already

Sunday morning as I got my paper I realized that it was a little thicker than usual. When I got it home I noticed that it was quite a bit thicker because there were many many Sunday store ads. At first I was sort of shocked because The forth of July is over and it isn't quite time for Labor day but then I seen the headings on all those adds Back To School ! Oh No I thought it is barely July. Not yet. Then I realized that though my kids don't go back to school until September, many go back in August. I guess for many this is the time to shop. Actually it is probably the time for all of us who don't want to settle for whatever is left after the early birds get all of the bargains.

The problem is that I am not ready to think about Back to School. I have been told that I am odd but I love having the kids home for the summer. I could never handle home schooling on a regular basis but I love the summer. Here we are in the middle of Vacation and still have so much left to do. We have not yet visited Kings Island like we planned due to Michael's feet we have only been to Cedar Point twice . We haven't even been to Geauga Lake more than a few times.
I guess that I need to get moving and enjoy what is left of Summer . After all time stands still for no one.
