Already? And why does this surprise me not at all?


Sing with me, everybody.

On the first day of va-ca-tion my children gave to me, wakin' and fightin' by se-ven thiiiiiiiir-ty.

It's going to be a long two to four weeks. 

That startled some of you. Four weeks? Well, historically they've had little to no school the first two weeks "back to school" in January for weather issues like mountains of snow and sheets of ice. So on top of the two weeks of vacation which is way too long anyway, we end up with closer to an entire month off of our routine.

So far we've been lucky, but we'll see if Old Man Winter gets his usual act back together for 2016.

Please ignore the screams coming from the basement. That's me not intervening yet. 

To those of you who tell younger parents that they'll miss the noise/activity/chaos of small children........ think up your own consequence. I'm going to go try again to drink my coffee.
