It happened yesterday. I unexpectedly received a pesky, almost sneaky abrupt email from CISD.
This arrogant punchy message was reminding me exactly how many days left we have of Summer. To me it was like an unnecessary loud obnoxious siren announcing that in exactly three and a half weeks the FUN IS OVER!
It sounded like a loud blaring voice over a speaker announcing, your daughter will begin her sophomore year of high school in approximately THREE WEEKS! I felt like I was mandatory subjected to the principles office for swats!
(scroll down for a but burning workout video)
Two direct hits to the gut and heart.
I don’t know about you but as a mom, I’m the master scheduler, calendar artist and knower of ALL the things. I don’t always make the plans but I proudly add them to the calendar in a flash! What I don’t ever EVER need is a reminder about the first day of school. This is mom 101 stuff yall! That’s like asking a pregnant woman if she needs a reminder of her due date! That date is locked and loaded in her brain the very first time she hears the doctor say the words. NO REMINDER NEEDED!
This less than helpful email only sent me into a deep doldrums of despair. My heart sank thinking of the regimented school schedule and frenzied fast paced go-go go grind that it brings.
We are not ready yet! We’re not ready, I wanted to shout! Give us two more weeks and then we might be ready. Who am I kidding? I’m never ready!
This Summer just so happened to be the shortest Summer in Coppell ISD history.
I feel as if I have been cheated of a few more calm peaceful weeks with my girl.
Why can’t we wait until after Memorial Day for goodness sake? Can’t we petition or riot in the streets? Justice for Summer! Justice for the students, justice for sleep, justice for household peace and quiet!
It’s too dang hot for kids to focus. To me, we are pushing them out the door way to fast. High School kids are on a speed track. They are on this need to have their lifetime career chartered out before they ever even step foot on a college campus. Why? What the heck are we doing?
Now districts every where are pushing and poking parents around and messing up my lazy Summer. STOP IT ALREADY!
No more reminders…we know how much time is left. We know when the schedules are released and how much money we have to siphon so we can buy all the things such as a parking pass, bus pass, lunch account money, year book, school pictures and supplies.
Maybe all independent school districts should send this reminder to the grandparents or aunts and uncles of the world. Like a go fund me for the school year. Don’t send me a reminder sending me into a tail spin of whining. I don’t like it.
This reminds me of last year when I got the lunch balance alert. No thank you CISD.
I felt like I had been sent to the principles office for a few swats on the behind. Speaking of behind. Here is a jovial booty blast that will perk up your day.
Here is the full video !
Also, im wearing my staple speed up short from Lululemon. They are flexible and a perfect length for me. The attached panties are breathable and have plenty of coverage. I also have on the FREE to be Seren Tank which I love because the bra is attached to the top. I love the open flowy back.
Love, soak up Summer and try not to be a bummer.
