Let Spring Break Begin!

Easter Gift from my Secret Pal today! Isn't it just the greatest!

Let Spring Break begin!!!! I am so excited that today is my last day at work for over a week. I was so excited I decided to start my vacation a little early. I usually stay late on conference night but after the week I have had this week I could not stay late. I have felt so yucky all week all that I wanted to do was get through today without falling asleep at my desk. I don’t know what it is – but I do know that I need some time off to slow down a little and get some rest.



I do have plans to get some spring cleaning done while I am out over the coming week. However, I think in getting my house in some order will help me feel better too. I feel like I have neglected it almost as much as I have of my own body. It is really odd don’t you think . . . the two things that are probably my biggest responsibility (with the exception of children) I have neglected the most. My body and my home have fallen prey to the craziness that is my life. They have both taken back seats to everyone else’s needs. However, if I don’t take care of the two of them – they are not going to be much good at taking care of the rest of my family. So over the next week I plan to reclaim them both. I plan to clean. I plan to organize. I plan to spend some time in quiet - planning - organizing and cleaning mode in my mind as well. I need to get to a place this week where I can find rest and comfort in the place that I call home and in the body I call mine. I need to spend my next week focusing on some things that will make me feel better. I need to do some things that will make my days easier when I do go back to work. If I can manage to get cleaned up, get some organization in my home and schedule and get some much needed rest then I will have had a well spent week off! Wish me luck!!! I will just have to keep you posted.
