Dog Days

A dose of mid-America  reality temporarily eradicated our smugness.

Today I checked the calendar more than a few times, wondering when school would start. The kids slept late and languidly picked up the devices, acting like every biblical pestilence and a few new ones awaited them beyond the couch.

For most of the day the weather wasn't crazy hot, but perhaps it was the humidity that killed any desire for creative play.

LSS took the kids somewhere to jump on trampolines giving me an opportunity to get some things done -- blogging!
