Breaks

It has been nearly a month since the last time I updated my blog. It has also been nearly a month since I feel like I have been able to sit down, take a deep breath, and just relax. The past month has been quite busy with basketball season taking off, and last minute attempts to cram a few things into phys ed class before the break.

Speaking of the break... For every day that I report to work and complain to myself that I have to be there, once these breaks hit, I rediscover the glorious perks of being a teacher. Maybe it's because I'm used to getting the breaks, but I really can't imagine having a job that didn't get 2 weeks for the holidays, a week for spring break, a 5 day weekend at Thanksgiving, a 3 month recess during the summer, and a handful of 3 and 4 day weeks scattered throughout the year.

Yes, it's a tough life. Teach little kids all day, then get rewarded with breaks. Happy Holidays to all!



Until next time,
