Taking advantage of Spring Break

 


Today is the beginning of Spring Break. Saturday and Sunday were days where I did nothing but sit in my chair and veg on stupid television. I mean, the dogs and I slept and rested, and slept more. It did not hurt that it was Daylight Savings Time change so we went back to my favorite time of year. 

Today I am going to try and clean the yard and pool, which have been trashed by all the weather we have been having. I have at least two days of work ahead of me. 

Tonight I am going to Bored Teachers Spring Break Comedy Tour with a friend. I hope to laugh out loud. I need it. It seems this years has lasted a very long time. 

When I return to school, I will have nine weeks of instruction left. Only nine weeks to try and wrangle some knowledge in my students' heads. I am not sure if they will be receptive or not. It seems the closer to summer we get, the more they lose their minds. 

I do have a couple of bright spots in my journalism class and we will be going to the FSPA Spring Conference in April. Only two of my students wanted to participate. two and a half days in Orlando with a bunch of other newspaper, yearbook and broadcast students and they didn't want to go. 

I have applied for several PD opportunities in the summer but am still waiting to hear back from them. So today won't be a rush around day. Neither will tomorrow which is a dentist appointment day. I have 7 more days to do nothing. I am going to take advantage of them to prepare for the last nine weeks.
