Zeller Cellar Word Fun #32

Summer’s almost over and it’s back to school for many of us. Why does the summer speed by so fast, but the school year drags on? Before we know it we’ll have piles of homework. Let’s go to the cellar and forget about homework.

Get a leg up: help that you receive that gives you an advantage over other people or makes it possible for you to do something difficult

Give a leg up: an act of helping someone or something to improve their chances
