August 1 -- I have not been able to do my blog entries for the last few nights because we were traveling and I did not have internet access. Having said that, traveling long distances is not as excited as it used to be -- I am definitely getting old!!
Today was spent getting all of the laundry done, cleaning the house and trying to get all in order. I am exhausted! not the way I wanted to end my vacation but oh well, it feels good to be home again even though that means doing tons of laundry!
Tonight Luke and I went to Walmart to begin shopping for his college stuff. I am determined to finish that as soon as possible so I can just concentrate on getting ready for the school year. As it is, I received a very helpful email from another English teacher tonight with the "curriculum" for Of Mice and Men. I read it and was like, huh??!! I just can't think about it right now. Have to get Luke done and then the other kids and then I can focus totally on the teaching. Besides, I still have a few more books to read!! It's so overwhelming if I think about it all at once. so I just keep focusing on TODAY, and what I can finish today.
But on a final note -- I am so disgusted at how much money I am spending sending Luke to college. Geesh. I completely do NOT remember my parents spending this much on me when I left for college. No way. And we were at Walmart for goodness sake!! yipes!
