Dear Retail Stores

Please for the love of all things good, stop displaying your fall decor, not to mention your Christmas (no names, Bhobby Dlobby). It is the MIDDLE of summer in NORTHERN ILLINOIS where summer is sacred. Don't take that away from us. Not even a little bit.

And thank you "Through the Looking Glass", cute little store in downtown Grayslake that the kids wanted to go in yesterday during the Farmer's Market, for still having beachy stuff out and not a hint of anything not summer. You're the best.

Hey - our Bhobby Dlobby started putting out halloween stuff after Easter. I wish I were kidding, but it's true!

We deal with it well though, summer around here isn't sacred, it's just another one of our two seasons.

The sad thing is I'm hearing school supplies/backpacks are already picked over! What the heck... I haven't even thought about school supplies. I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there is only like a month of summer left!
