Yes, it's true.  While the rest of the country, or at least those living in the northeast, are taking their vacations, going to the beach, enjoying their last days of summer, we here in the south (or at least in Kentucky) have already bought the school supplies, splurged on the new school clothes, packed the lunches, loaded up the kids in the minivan or school bus, and...breathed a sigh of relief.  Don't get me wrong.  I adore my children.  But summer is long.  And even though I miss the whole vacationing in August thing, I'm ready for school to start when mid-August rolls around.  After all, I have a new novel to finish!  And the silence I'm enjoying in my home now is bliss!
