Yesterday was our (mine and Barb’s) first day back to school for the first day of “Pre-Planning.” My good friend and next door neighbor Monty has a tradition that he uses to mark this occasion. For some reason we always seem to have Monty and his wife Sally over the Sunday night before we have to report back to work. Both of us having been off the entire summer seems to irk Monty just a little each year. So each year at this time Monty always informs us that he is coming over on Sunday night and he is going to stay until Mid-night and then take the next day off so he can gloat over the fact that these 2 school teacher had to report back to school. The ironic thing is now that all of us are older, (if you consider mid-40’s old) none of us including Monty can’t stay up past 10pm on the night before work. In fact, Monty and Sally went home around 9:30 that night.
So we’re back to work and the kiddos start back in a few days and the annual cycle of school starts once again. Keep up in your prayers.
