It's Gonna Be a Long One

It took all summer, but boredom has officially set in for the kids. We are kind of having a rough week of it, with Dad back at school but the rest of us still in summer mode. I personally feel no motivation for accomplishing anything, and that certainly isn't helping our cause. And combine it with the fact that my wonderful husband is not only gone all day, but almost every evening as well and you can imagine that we just kind of feel like we are in a funk. This evening I am taking the kids to watch a cousin play soccer. Because of travel, this will kill a good two hours! Tomorrow is lunch with my mother and grandmothers, and then I think we will travel to Dad's school and have dinner with him between the end of his school day and the beginning of his open house. Thursday is lunch with my sister, and Friday we'll be driving back to Dad's school to meet up with friends for the opening of the high school football season. At least we are getting out and about! The kids are so excited about school starting next week, and right now it just feels as though it is forever away!
