I would declare the last week of summer: No shirt, no shoes, no reading, writing or any activity having to do with paper… Then the next Happy Hollister book would come. Ok, I’d give in for that. Still no shoes or shirt.

This goes back to the end of my first grade, I won’t say exactly when but it was quite a while ago. In my own memory, however, starting school in a new grade was always an adventure.

I have done a fair amount of boring over my lifetime, but I can honestly say I am never bored…
