It Is What It Is… Or Isn’t
Today is the last day home before taking off tomorrow. There will be no structured school today… OK, there was little to none yesterday too- so, sue me…. I am too busy cruising the blogosphere putting together my little bitty community newspaper before we leave. In theory this little rag should actually write itself, in that, my friends, neighbors and community compatriots are clamouring to submit their respective bits and pieces of individual community perspective… but, um… no. I will write it. From largely my own individual community perspective. In truth, I have a few very generous contributors, for whom I have grown to owe my life to depend on, providing a voice other than my own.
But, back to my point about no school today…. newspaper day for mom means: don’t ask me for food… don’t ask me for drinks… don’t ask me to turn on the t.v… and certainly don’t ask me to log in to Webkinz because you’ve lost your password. Please, just leave me be. I am squeezing out creativity in the form of community news… and believe me that takes some creativity! And so I sit… blogging. Ignoring children and their needs… blogging.
Rather than neglecting my offspring, consider it a stirring of the creative juices. And you can also consider it a valuable exercise in independence for my children….
