Playground Confidential

I'm looking out over a quiet lake as I write this post, the sound of water lapping against the dock and laughter carrying across the water from a far-off boat. There are tall trees and blue sky as far as I can see and the children run free.

This is not my cottage. Tomorrow we pack up and head back into the city where we'll stay for most of the rest of the summer. My kids aren't in any sort of camp or daycare either. Instead, they will be lazing about the house in desperate need of physical and intellectual stimulation while my own work commitments and deadlines hold strong.

How on earth am I going to manage? Well, I have a plan. Sort of.
