My son attended Extended School Year for most of the summer - it started after July 4th and then his last day was Friday. He had 2 weeks in between school and ESY and one of these weeks was filled with him attending camp. The other week was a "short" week because of the 4th holiday so it was like one big weekend. Friday marked his last day of extended school year and he is "off" until school starts back up again in September. Gone are the days of strict routine of getting up and going on the bus at 7:15 and coming home at 1:45. School is over.
So, the next 3 weeks life will be 'interesting'. For the most part the kids do get along and love each other. They actually do play together and enjoy each others company - when they aren't killing each other. We have another week of summer camp the last week of August and then after that - both of my children will be going to school.

Do you have friends who say things like, "Summer's going by too fast. I'm going to miss having the kids home"? Do you want to slap them.
Good luck in these interesting times.
This is the longest three weeks of my life. Matt is flying from room to room banging walls and almost missing the cat. Nicholas is frustrated over his new Mario Bros Nintendo DS game and wants to play on computer, but I will not let him as I need it.
Too hot and dangerous to go for laps around lake anymore and nowhere else to go. Maybe Target one day, but have to find out if the budget cut is happening next paycheck, then cannot afford a new video for Matt or anything for that matter. I am going to add the camp to an article I have on camps.
Well, I'll give you something to do: I actually got tagged for a meme. (Yes, I know you are shocked!)
So I'm tagging you!
