Good morning! Today is the last day I put my kids on the bus for the summer. Friday is the last day but we may do a little getaway weekend and leave friday morning so today is the day they say good-bye to all their friends. So what are your plans for today? Hopefully for me, a bit more sleep, exercise, and straighten up the house for the weekend. I will check back later and hoping everyone enjoys their day! Jeannie
I had only been in bed a couple of hours before you got up, Jeannie.
When does your school year begin? If our students go past the first week in June, they feel they are going to school all year. Of course, we do have year round schools. This happens only if the parents choose this and the school has air conditioning. Nothing worse than being in a hot classroom. I would hate to teach under that condition. I doubt much learning goes on in an open air classroom.

Our kids go back to school after Labor Day. A few weeks after the NC schools, I believe. The classrooms are hot at this time. The kids even had a couple of 1/2 days last week because of the heat.

The day after Labor Day used to start our school year too. Then we got teacher work days and that extended the school year because our students have to go 180 days a year. We are a little whimpie with the rules in the mountains the last few years. If they get too much snow, they can shorten their school year below the 180 day requirement. The year my dh finished high school we had to go to school on Saturdays to get the required 180 days in. To make sure we showed up, each teacher was required to give a test. That was the year we were out of school for a solid month. Each time the roads got all right to go back to school, it would snow again. We finally went back to school with not all buses running in the higher elevations.
I hope you are sleeping better NCN, have you tried meditation? it's makes you calmer and sleep better
I need to get those waffles,those are good!
banana,eggs and toast
soy milk
Izzy, it is not a sleep problem. It is a get off City-Data problem. When I go to bed I go to sleep just fine usually. My bed does a back massage for an automatic 20 minutes and I am usually asleep before it finishes. If I get really tired, I sometimes do the massage in the afternoon and it puts me to sleep then too. When I go to bed as late as last night I can't use it because it wakes up my dh. I really miss my bed when I go on vacation. Couldn't wait to get home to it.
