Working Spring Break



Spring Break has finally arrived.  

I'm calling it a "working Spring Break," since it will not include a vacation, overnight getaway, or sleeping in (unless you call 7 am sleeping in -- which I suppose is better than my regular 5:40 wake-up call).  On the upside, I get two weeks off of work.  On the downside, I don't get paid for my two weeks off, the older girls are off the first week, and Mar is off the second, which pretty much means I'm still on-call.

But I'm hoping to get some good things accomplished with my extra time.  

Here's my back-on-the-horse wish list:

Ironing - DONE
Kitchen floor - MOPPED
Bathrooms - CLEAN
Basement - DECLUTTERED
House - PAINTED
Shilo's driver's ed class - COMPLETE
Lexee's job hunt - SUCCESSFUL
Finances - IN ORDER
Bills - PAID
Home filing system - REORGANIZED
Picture scanning - IN PROGRESS
Temple attendance - IMPROVED
Family calendar - UPDATED and ACCURATE
Monthly menu - CREATED

I'm overwhelmed already.

Let's just say I'm making the attempt to get back in the saddle.  Mid-air, hoping for a soft landing.

  1. 2 weeks off, that would be fun. Why aren't your schools on the same schedule? Our spring break is in 2 weeks, I can't wait! I even have the kids home today (end of term, teacher prep day). I love having them home.
