Back To School
I still remember it, that sinking feeling as you lay in bed on the Sunday Evening.
The school holidays finished yesterday on a glorious late winters Sunday with the normal mad frenzy for lunch boxes (hopefully empty) plus the relocation of school bags and shoes.
Two weeks of day time movie viewings, too many lollies, late nights and sleep ins interspersed with a dollop of boredom.
Where did all the time go? So many plans not put into action, rooms still untidy, socks still missing and huts still not built.
Thank God it's over.
