Back in the swing of things
What a week last week was! The challenges of preparing a meal, getting showered, dressed, and made up in the dark, and communication with the outside world were contrasted with the serene nights on the deck, reading by candle light, sharing rare and precious time with the kids sans tv and video games, and going to sleep at a decent hour. But today is very different. Today, the ease of routine has setteled in, alarm clock wake-up call, hair dryer, and coffee freshly brewed welcomed me as I began another Monday. At school however, the restlessness of schedule interruptions and retreats have made it difficult to get antsy students willing to settle in. This Monday already seems like a long week - and I can’t imagine what Thursday will feel like - considering this is the first full week of school for us in a very long time! I guees it truly is time to get back in the swing of things.
