What an awful blogger I have been here! No news of the monsters for weeks and weeks! School I finally over for the year! I was very happy to see the year end. I am finding it difficult to feel like I am getting what I want out of the school system. I "like" everyone well enough teachers & staff, but I just didn't expect to have to fight so hard for what I think my monsters need. Plus the politics SUCK! I could never have imagined elementary school for my kids was going to be more difficult for me socially that Wall High School had been:) but it is!
Anyway, school is OUT! We have been spending our days at the pool and will do just alittle traveling, which will be a change for us. I wonder how we will like being home more than away for the summer, we have never done it!
The monsters quickly switched to a "summer schedule" of going to be LATE and sleeping their mornings away. It works here though because the pool doesn't open until noon so if the roll out of bed at 10:30, I can feed them and they are ready for the pool!
I will post pictures soon! Maybe from the FolkLife Festival if we can make it down there in the heat tomorrow!

Ah...
Perfect song on the radio
Sing along 'cause it's one we know
It's a smile, it's a kiss
It's a sip of wine, it's summertime
Sweet summertime-

The weather is HOT and STICKY. The pool is open. We have made it to another summer! Declan and Killi are just about finished with school. We have abandoned what schedule we had and we are back to winging-it. The only schedule we have sort-of maintained is getting to and from school, and you see I said "sort-of":)
With the weather HOT and Ben traveling all last week, I have completely turned on the slacking mode. I have a messy house, a pile of laundry and no desire to do anything but sit on the beach with a book(I will substitute a pool since the ocean is 2 hours away). I hit the county pool once this week with Marg while those other monsters suffered at school and today we all hit the community pool.
I love the pool. I love that the monsters love the pool. They swim and play with their "summer friends" all the while getting exercise and tired:) We picked up some new goggles and sunscreen and we are good to go!
A few more days and school will be over and we will have very few commitments. We hitting my FAVORITE time of year!
