Summer isn't over yet!

Contrary to the ads in the Sunday newspaper for school supplies and the store aisles filled with folders, paper, and pens, summer isn't over yet. It's only July 24 yet the bombardment has begun because in many places, school will begin in a few weeks.

While many of us still remember the days when we didn't start school until after Labor Day (my family didn't go on vacation until the first week of August), with it starting so early and also having ended late in many places this year because of the extreme winter, it feels as if summer has flown by.

It always feels like summer zips by leaving us looking back wondering why we didn't get to accomplish everything we wanted to do.
