Where Did Summer Go?

Ummm, hello? 

What happened to July? 

I seem to have missed an entire summer. When we're off school schedule, we pack our days full in order to avoid boredom, stimming and insanity. 

"Time-off" can be very stressful and Jake thrives on routine, so I am forced to plan the weeks ahead of time. If we're not travelling, there better be a schedule with big exercise and adventure. 

After summer school ended, we rode bikes in 5 states, in 5 days -- bang, one week down. 

Then headed to Florida for another week with family... bang bang, another 5 days of bliss, behind us. 

Now, bang bang bang, we're in the middle of the week. Five days from the beginning of school. I haven't purchased a single school supply. I've taken on way too many projects than my sanity will allow and Jake has two daddy days ahead of him. 

Keep on pumping over that hill!!! The end/beginning is almost here!
