Summer thoughts
3 weeks till school starts, yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
summer school ended leaving a month of
summer fun to be had
but the weather wasn't kind
days way to hot to be on playgrounds,
public pool open during limited times
parents having to work
so camping has been delayed
with hopes of going before the dreaded return to school
parents counting down the days
where the words "mom there is nothing to eat"
will now only be heard in the evenings
the shopping list will go back to normal soon
as we try to make
one last splash
for the children giving them
one last wonderful
summer memory
to get them through the next school year

High Rise, Deep Impact
I have witnessed a death that I relive every time I step into an elevator. Although it no longer affects me as deeply—given that it's been 11 years since the incident—it remains a heart- rending memory from my first and last day as a paramedic. My initial call to the scene involved a man who seemed to have fallen down the elevator shaft of a high-rise building. Alternatively, it might have been that the elevator moved upwards while he was working on it. Different scenarios were being considered when I arrived.

I like this. It reminds me of those summer holidays which I used to love, yet at the same time I couldn't wait to get the kids back to school!
