In about 4 weeks... Summer went pretty fast for me.. Been programming my senior project throughout the summer.. Good thing me and my team got a good start in the fall semester

School starts next week Monday.  I can't believe Summer is almost over but I am ready for Fall and cooler temperatures.

Where I live, school started this past Monday. So my kids are on their third day at school. On Monday, my oldest son came home saying he had already broken his pencil sharpener which is really annoying. It wasn't a cheap one, it was one of those crank-handle ones from Walmart which cost nearly $7. Thankfully I have been able to find the receipt so tomorrow I will be taking it back to Walmart for a replacement/refund.

The "Year 'Round" schools here started right before the end of July.  The "regular" schools started last week.

I, personally, think they're all nuts out here what with the dead heat of summer and temps being well over 100 degrees to start any of these kids so early.  At least if they waited until September, we'd have a cooling trend (LOL) in the 90's.  I don't miss the days where I walked my kids to and from school in 110 degrees at all.

School around here starts after Labor Day. My daughter is in Texas now and she starts school next Monday 8/24 and will get out the beginning of June instead of the end so I think that's better. Her day also runs a little longer

Our schools always start the week before Labor Day, which I think is dumb. They used to start the week after Labor Day but I guess those 5 extra days help if there's a lot of snow days.

I'm going to show my age and this story is no joke....When I went to school, they never closed for snow unless it was 5 feet deep. They would allow the rural kids to have off without a problem because of the danger driving on the roads but town kids were always supposed to show up. I had to go all the time, no matter what because my dad was a cop and "it isn't right if a cop's daughter doesn't make a good example." It was a 3 ft snow and school started at 8 a.m. It sure was lonely walking to school that day and the pavements weren't shoveled that early in the morning so I walked in the street until the snow plows came by. For what? Study halls all day because there were 5 kids in my class. Even town kids didn't show up. That was also the time when dress codes were strict and you had to wear skirts or dresses but you could wear snow pants under the dress and take them off when you got to school.

Some day I'm going to write my life's story so my kids and grandkids know exactly what I had to go through growing up. I know they won't believe me but it'll make me feel better. Those stories everyone laugh about the  kids having to walk a mile to school were basically true because I lived at one end of town and the school was on the other end of town, a mile and a half away.
