I walked past the television yesterday and caught an advertisement for back to school supplies. I know some schools in other states open at the end of August, but it is still July.
A shopping channel is featuring women's sweaters and jackets. Just the thought of wearing anything long-sleeved while I experience the July heat makes me cringe. Another big box store is offering a layaway program for back to school clothing for children.
One way to look at this is that merchants want us to be prepared.
Another way to look at it is that we are rushing past summer and vacation time, and rushing past fun.
I wonder what the school children think... Everybody in the pool!
Smiles,
Sylvia
