Free at Last

 

I am a big believer in the school bus. It’s environmentally friendly, and for more than a decade it came along and took my kids to school without my having to lift a finger. My faith in the bus has only grown this year because I had to drive my last kid to school for a number of reasons. Mornings for me are a time when I do a lot of lucid dreaming/thinking and sacrificing that for the exalted privilege of getting a cranky teen out of bed was painful. Next year he will be more responsible I hope. In any case, summer is here and I am free.
