 | Good Morning! August looms as our grandkids struggle with summer ending . . . schooldays dead ahead! Maybe not as bad as it sounds. I can remember the excitement returning to school brought with it. Reuniting with friends I hadn't seen all summer and the school supplies which always included the "required" #2 pencils, pink pearl eraser, lined tablets and at least one box of 24 crayons. |
Don't know about you but I still remember the "back to school aroma" that stuff had.
My, my, how times change! Now kids need only an iPad. Wonder if that has an aroma? Come to think of it I haven't touched a #2 pencil in years. It may sound funny but I still come in contact with a Pink Pearl almost daily. Only now it is in the form of a nail brush.
Enough nostalgia . . . Now down to business - HARV
