I wish I had been able to go somewhere and just relax for spring break, but if I'm going to be truthful, I enjoyed all of the preparations I did this week for my drama club production. At least with this, there will be the reward of satisfaction for a job well done, as opposed to a sunburn. Besides, the weather has been kind of crappy this week. The first part of the week was cold, and the last part of the week was rainy. Therefore, the beach would not have been much fun. It doesn't mean I won't bitch and complain because I was working instead of laying out on the beach, but overall, I really enjoyed what I did this week.
The drama club will be something I will miss if I leave my current job at the end of this year, but I will only be leaving if I get hired at one of two positions I am currently applying for and am fairly hopeful about. Job applications are always a wait and see game, but it's a little easier to do when you have a job already, no matter how little it pays.
Also, for teachers the most important part of spring break is being away from the students for a week. At this time each year, we are as tired of the students as they are of us. We need a week to recuperate before the mad rush to the end of the school year, which is just seven weeks away.
Spring Break!!! The time was when the whole town got up and moved to the same beach to see the same people they see each day, eat the same place as they did last year, and most likely stay in the same motel at the same beach as they had done for years!!! I prefer now to go at a different time, different place, and see different people!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the photo...MMMMM.. two spring breakers (or another other time of the year) enjoying a time on the beach. communicating with hand movement, anticipating a more intimate time inside the motel room...and both visually enjoying the activity in the sun rays....Now, that is nice!!!....
Good luck with the job applications. But only two?
ReplyDeleteGlad you got two in! That's a good start. Keep looking northward, I am telling you...
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll take some pics of the production. I'm sure it will be cool.
Love the picture. Me wants them both! As is.
Peace <3

I am spending spring break with my mother in Texas. The weather sure beats Wisconsin, but with my mother beginning to show her age (85), each trip becomes a bit more stressful. And as I begin to feel my age (63), the two-day drive each way becomes more stressful, too!
ReplyDeleteTom and I got married on March 24 and I took off for Texas on March 27. So he is telling everyone I already ran home to mother.
