Back-to-School, Back to Reality!

With Back-to-School 2 weeks away, I'm in a very giddy mood! #EXCITED

The girls will be in a new school, I'll have new work hours (8:30 - 4:30), and hopefully with lots of prep & prayer, I'll be ready & willing to wake up every morning at 5:45 am!!! Let's just say, I'm NOT a morning person (though secretly I yearn to be)!

The coffee maker will be set for 6:30am, and the girls will learn the meaning of "GET UP NOW" (maybe I should invest in a bullhorn... especially for the big one)!!! Nah, I'm pretty LOUD! LoL

With lists & loads of school supplies, uniforms, and shoes to buy, I think it's only natural (and fair) that I receive a little back-to-school treat for myself. Now, I thought a new car was in order (my husband disagreed), so I guess I'll settle for a new coffee mug & a case of Nonni's Limone Biscotti (see below)!!!

I'm so glad I still have a little bit of time for final prep. I need to get my SCHEDULE board hung up that has a calendar for the kids & a calendar for the parents (this is sooooo needed for my husband!) It's also a place to keep coupons, school forms, notes, announcements, and all things family!

I have one this size at home. This one pictured came from  www.officedepot.com!!! 

So as we prepare for back-to-school, lets say FAREWELL to summer: 

You were great while you lasted, but all good things must come to an end! Now it's time to say goodbye you felt like kin. Oh how I'll miss your sandals and tank tops and warmth on my skin! Good bye, oh, Good bye, my seasonal friend! 

Good Bye Summer!!! 

Until next time,

& Farewell,

Truly, PKM
