Remember When ...


Do you remember when school did not start until after Labor Day and ended by Memorial Day? That was nice. We had a nice long relaxing summer vacation. I believe kids need that. They need to be home and have some off time to revamp. On my summer vacations, I slept in (that's a given), played with my toys & games, went swimming & to the recreation center, we went on vacation and just hung out. Of course, Mom was home. The big treat was seeing dad every day, beside weekends, because he worked second shift at GM. But, towards the end of summer, everyone knew it was time to get the kids in school. Mom & Dad were ready and the kids were ready. "The Good Old Days!"
