You've lost that summer feelin'

Another Saturday of surfing the disconnect between what I want to be doing, what I need to be doing and what I'm actually doing.

This summer has gotten off to a slow start, it's like I'm waiting for it to get underway, and it's actually well into it.

Busy Dad teaching summer school and Busy Boy working at Vacation Bible School (somewhat against his will, but he needs the volunteer hours) really deferred that "summer feeling".

The crazy weather hasn't helped matters any, either. It's like the seasons are offset by one or something, at least in my head, anyway. Winter was warm, spring was freezing and summer started off cool and raining.

I keep thinking that after the next event we have to get through, it'll "really" be summer with some free time, but actually, other than our vacation, we're kinda booked up until school starts back. But, that's not hard to do since school starts at the beginning of August.

I suppose this is one of those things where I have to "just do it" and get up and do summer stuff even when it doesn't feel like summer.

But, I suppose the key is actually "getting up" first.

Maybe in a few minutes.

You're totally in my head on this one.

Will you and Busy Girl be working at/attending the girls' camp this summer, as during previous years?

I honestly do not remember what it feels like to have free time. Especially in the summer because on top of everything else, I have to take care of the stupid outside of the house!!

I am with you on this one and I'm scared it will all slip away and be over before I've realized it started. My kids vacations are going well--is it sad that that's where my priorities lie?

Please feel free to send some of that rain my way here in Texas. It has been scorching hot. A little TOO much summer and this is from someone used to Texas summers. Usually our Texas summers include some afternoon rains!

O BOY! Do I know what you mean,.

This weather is completely to blame. i cant get motivated either... and there is a ton I need and want to get done--- yet, the weather makes me just want to hang around in sweats and veg out. ... its terrible.

Where are you Summer?!?!?!

That summer feelin's spreadin' way over here in Jersey, even :(
