Back to school tomorrow. Today was a day of denial- spent at the beach, in the yard, cleaning, and now... revising syllabi and lesson planning before bed. Does it make me a bad parent that I intentionally played the kids hard and with no naps today so I could have an hour to prepare for school? Meh- maybe a crap parent but a rock star teacher?

Our YouCaring site has had no love these last two days, but that's okay- because there are 3 more to go and I will not surrender! Yet. Well, actually that's not true. I'm surrendering now. I wasn't even going to post tonight but I felt obligated.

Really- this is how I'm feeling.

And with that, I'm out. Please say an extra prayer for all the teachers returning to work tomorrow... and if you don't pray, well, drop off a bottle of some good booze at your favorite teacher's house.
