I called in sick today. I'm not really sick. It's ok, it happens to the best of us. I decided to stay home and be super productive and get all of those little things on my checklist crossed off. So I woke up at 8:00 and started writing my student comments for grades - 26 pages worth. I have about six pages left. Then I decided to get at least one set of grades done, and that I did. I also had a chance to clean my room, make myself a fabulous lunch, AND run three miles in preparation for the half marathon I am running in May. The beauty of staying in my room on the computer all day, is that I get to reward myself with little breaks which included blog hopping, music browsing, email writing, and snacking on left overs from a quite delicious and enjoyable dinner yesterday. Yup, these little breaks turned into longer breaks. I am in the middle of one right now and I have found that my train of thought keeps reverting back to memories of warmer days and summer time.
And I have to say I can't wait for the sunshine to actually do its job. Curling up in a patch of sunlight on the living room floor just doesn't seem to be cutting it for me these days. I want real, heat you through and through sunlight. As I was thinking about this, my train of thought continued back to last summer and how much fun it was to be out and about. I do love that about being a teacher - my summers are free. More specifically I was thinking about the fun roadtrip we took last May and how I can't wait for this year's trip. I am including pictures to tempt anyone who might want to join us this year. . .

Oh grades are the worst! Especially comments. I try to stay upbeat, but honest. By the end I've written a novel and my hand hurts.
Trish, I figured it out. Go to NBC.com and then to shows. Choose The Office and then you will see the personality test towards the bottom of the page.
Best road trip of my life. thank you Trish :D
