Today was the first day of "official" summer break for the boys. Don't you wish you could go back in time and tell your younger self....hey enjoy summer. When you get old, there are no summer breaks in the daily grind. If you are lucky, you get 40 hours of precious PTO that you have saved over the last months to have a "vacation". I think back on summers on Princess Circle and wish for those simpler times. When you would wait until you heard Daddy whistle for you to come in when it got too dark. Where we would play hide and seek on bikes at night. Where my brother would play Godzilla as April and I played Barbies on rainy days. (He was such a butt) Now summer consists of making sure you have enough grub in the house for the boys to eat, making sure the house is not demolished by the time you come home and counting down to long awaited weekends, like this one coming.
According the our local news station, this is one of the busiest travel weekends. Here at the Patch, we are waiting anxiously to do nothing, breath in the sweet smell of the honeysuckle and be together. Hopefully, in this spot...with a cold glass of sweet tea, a good book and the sound of the pond.
Enjoy your weekend, thank those that made Memorial Day a day to reflect on and for gosh sake RELAX!
