We’re in the midst of the back-to-school rush because my kids go back to school next week, how about you?
What the back to school rush means for us is:
- A giant shopping trip. We have to buy everything from new clothes to backpacks to pencils and paper. Fortunately, this coming weekend is tax-free weekend in my state.
- Rescheduling. While I’m not one to let kids sleep all day, my kids will definitely have to get up earlier next week when school starts. We are trying to get them up earlier each day this week to prepare them for it.
- Homework. My kids’ school is part of the growing trend that gives kids homework over the summer. Although the kids did work on the homework during the summer, they are wrapping things up and making sure that they met all the requirements.
What does the back-to-school rush mean for you? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Yeah, I know the feeling.
I’m looking forward to not only back-to-school rush, but also the leaves changing and falling, and the cool weather blowing in — and more time to work on my sites!

Paula,
Your leaves change color? You’re so lucky. Here in Texas they mostly just dry up and fall off (usually in November).
