Today marks the official first day that I did not have to wake up at 4:30 to go to work! It is summer vacation. I marked this momentous occasion by doing two things 1. I read a book FOR FUN! That's right! Not a journal article, not curricular material that needed to be evaluated, an honest to goodness pleasure read!
My mom gave the book to me to read back in April. I told her it was going to have to be when I was done with my grad class and the school year. This was such a lovely story!!! I tend to finish books quickly as I get sucked into the story and I just cannot wait to find out what happens to the characters that I love.
2. I cleaned my kitchen top to bottom. I wiped the cabinets down, dusted the light fixtures, wiped down the appliances and generally just gave everything a good scrub. Look how shiny it all is!!!
So far, I would say that this vacation has started off a success!!! Looking forward to a mini trip this week with the peanut, starting some professional reading that was given to me and continuing my cleaning rampage on the house!!!!!!
Wow! I am impressed. I have learned after forty plus years that a clean kitchen in the morning just kicks off the day in a special way. Not to say I always accomplish that. Looking forward to seeing you and the Peanut this week.
