Is it Summer yet?

I have the “end of the school year” mom blues. I seriously can feel the days dragging ass to reach June 8th. It’s only 7 school days away. Seven, seven, seven. If I repeat it enough, it should shorten the time .. right? I could only hope, sadly, it doesn’t work that way. I’m just ready for summer and I’m sure a week into summer vacation I’ll be wanting him to go back to school. It isn’t him at all, it’ll be all 3 boys together, all day, most days no car, Sanity. Gone, just gone. They get loud. We don’t live in a big place right now, so yeah, sound, loudness, boys, it gets draining after not to long.
I plan to actually do something this summer. Some time we should be gone for a week in Kentucky but the dates on that are unknown. I do hope it’s before school starts up again. It’s not really a vacation as we’d be going for my husbands work. But we only have one car and they won’t pay for a rental. We can’t not have a car for a week so we will be going along.
I won’t have the car every day but I will try to have it several times a week. That way we can either just go to a playground or to the Zoo. I want us all to go to the Henry Ford Museum or the Hands On Museum in Ann Arbor. I want to DO things this summer! We will be taking the oldest up state for a week during Cherry Fest it looks like. We would all go up the 1st weekend of the fest and then leave that Sunday and have him stay with my parents. Then they would drive down the last weekend of the fest and bring him home. It would work out. We went every year when we lived in Traverse City. It’s still weird to be back downstate.
I’m just ready to not have to wake up to an alarm on the weekdays, unless I am taking the husband to work. Oh summer, how I long for your sweet mornings but not for the bickering, yelling and screaming I know I am about to endure.
I will survive .. I hope.
