Hard to believe school starts in a week for my son and two weeks for my daughter. I love to go school supply shopping. Clothing shopping sometimes; it is according to their mood. I am in shock, there are still a few things we haven't done. I'm hoping we will have a long Fall, this year. I'm ready for cooler weather, but not for summer to end. School should not start, till after Labor Day. Just my opinion... Are you ready to be behind the yellow school bus, again? Not me...
I want to say, Thank you to: Daydreamertoo, Kaykuala and Jen for your prior comments! I will be fine, it is just an adjustment period. I agree I will look and find the silver lining. For those who don't have a clue what I am talking about, my Mom put her home on the real estate market, today. I am a bit emotional, lots of changes to come. Mom will be moving in with us when her home sells. I am hoping for next Spring. Our son will graduate from college and we thought the transition would be easier. This may not be the case; yes, the FROG is taunting me again. When school starts I will work on downsizing and figuring out a new plan. Our son will move up into the FROG and Mom in his room, if things progress before Spring's arrival. I have mixed feelings, but family comes first. I am looking at my kitchen in a whole night light. I collect tins and well, they might become my new craft storage zone. The china cabinet also may be made over ;D I will find a way to make it work~

It's an adjustment, but I think I'll like it! :o) <3
Slow and easy as long as it's not going to be hurting your goodself. Good luck to you Ma'am.
Best wishes to you all during this transition...

Here in my country school starts with the 1st September, so kids still have some time to relax.

Things always have a way of working out as they are supposed to.
Big changes can also bring about good things in some ways. it'll be hard for your mother to have to lose her absolute independance and live by your house 'rules' too. So, best to lay it all out on the table and start as you mean to go on right at the start.
Just keep on keeping on. Hugs.
I live 2 blocks from the elementary school. Biggest problem is the parents.
Susan-Yes, I know this will be harder for her, than me. Thank you~
Gigglesandguns-Wise advise; I love this~ Thank you for sharing with me~
Angela-Yes, it is...there is even an amazing diamond colored glass window and a secret hinged step in the staircase. It will be sad to close the chapter on this. I guess I will have to write about it ;D
Thank you~
Alex-Thank you; it won't be dull ;D
Daydreamertoo-Well said; I agree, but she is a stubborn person. It won't be easy. Thank you~ I agree it will be harder for her...

Thank you Abby; one can hope!
Shelly-Thank you; yes moving is a major pain. I have done more than my share!
