twas the night before classes
and all through the house
the jitters were palpable
from the kid…AND the spouse.
They’ve prepared and imagined
they’ve made purchases and plans
but of the night before fear
there aren’t many fans
there’s no way around it
you have to go through it
there’ll be tossing and turning
until finally a ‘screw it’.
the alarm will go off
at a rude 5 o’clock
and they’ll be off on their day
with the rest of the flock
You’ll both be amazing and
We wish you the best
But the people you’ll meet
Are the ones who are blest.
Good luck tomorrow!

Good luck to both Honour and Dave in their new beginnings! I made it through my first week back – thanks to a good dose of wine last night! You might want to try the same – just suggesting!

Yes, Dave has a glass of wine already and Honour has taken her gravol. 🙂
What a great poem! Honour & Dave, I hope you both have a really good day!
Good Luck ! Sending big cyber hugs to all!
Vs 3 is a popular solution for insomnia here too. Not necessarily effective, but what the heck, eh?

Wonderfully said! I can feel the jitters all the way over here but the truth is in the last part, all those they meet are the ones that are blessed! All the best on your first day to all three of you! thinking of you! With love, Jola & girls
Work hard and play nice! And EAT YOUR WHOLE LUNCH for crying out loud!!! (sorry, that’s the only kind of first-day-of-school advice I know how to give…)
That was cute Tracie!Hope they made out ok!
Very clever….and touching! I hope everything is going well for them now.
Tracie – I learned that life is for the living and all that goes with it, laughter, love, sometimes pain and other negative things but they are only temporary and did I mention laughter? I wish so much that distance didn’t prevent me from knowing you and yours better because I know from the blog how much we would have enjoyed having you in our lives. But the blog will bring us closer and what’s distance when it comes right down to it?
