Day 8.232: Exile #2's Sunday Column #70

Exile #2 writes...

Well, it seems I took an inadvertent break from blog writing. This was due in large part to our losing track of the day of the week, like you do in the thick of the school vacation. Not so today. We are all painfully aware that today is Sunday and tomorrow is not just Monday, but back-to-school Monday. The two youngest Exiles will be starting new schools, so there is a bit of nervousness mixed in with all the other emotions. Lunches are made and the two Middle School Exiles have their alarms set to ring before 6 a.m.. Sad though I am that it is the end of vacation, I am looking forward to to reclaiming the living room floor and the kitchen island, both of which have been covered in art projects, Lego, and Pokemon all summer.

One of many such projects

Still, the fun is not completely over. We have plans to catch up with friends over the coming Labor Day weekend, and some more visits from family and friends to look forward to (hopefully) before we have to break out the snow shovels! Best wishes to all those starting a new term.
