Woo hoo!!! Boy, do I sure need an extra day this weekend. I had today off, and it was fabulous. I slept in until 10:30 this morning and then pretty much did nothing except laundry.
This week went by pretty fast, and I have to admit that it is almost to that time of year that I love so much. I hate being a teacher up until Thanksgiving. From then on, it time flies by so much and I get breaks more often. From the start of school to Thanksgiving, I always wonder why I am doing this. I am a short distance person, not a long distance person. Give me small breaks more often, please, and I will last longer. I have been having a really rough time this past month, and I even took a vacation! But now that it is almost to the easy point, I wonder where the time has gone.
Here are some things that I love about this time of year: The beautiful weather; planting fall/winter flowers like pansies and marigolds; baking holiday dishes and goodies; chai tea; shopping for Christmas presents; spending time with family.
I am off to Phoenix tonight. Matt and Serene are having their house warming party tomorrow. I am riding up with Keeley and Justin tonight. Phil can’t go because he works on weekends :( I will be back tomorrow night.
I had ambitions about doing some more yard work this weekend, maybe some gardening. That didn’t happen today, and it won’t happen tomorrow. We’ll see about Sunday…
