It is that Time of Year Again

I am having a hard time getting out of bed.   I feel like our calendar is booked solid for the next thousand weeks (it isn't, but you know what I mean).   My tendency to exaggerate has grown like crazy (see previous sentence).   I am having to force myself to muster the energy to cook dinner.   I find myself thinking in numbers - like only 9 more...   My impatience with people not listening to me is ridiculously high.   I cannot wait until sleeping in can be the norm.   All of this must mean only one thing - school is almost out for the summer!   I realized several years back that whether I have had a great year or a rotten one, I am ready for the end of the year once we get to this point.  And, people, I am there.   It has been a good year, but I need a break.   My kids need a break.   And Hallelujah, it is almost here.   (8 days, by the way.)
