Spring Break

I am from southern Texas….about an hour and a half from the Mexican border.  Around here, Spring Break is a big deal.  People travel from all over to spend their time and money to capture a bit of freedom.   And even though I am almost 40, I have made spring break a part of my yearly celebrations, even if in the smallest way.

Last year at this time, I had started back to school and was looking forward to a true spring break…no school, no work….then BAM!  I got sick.  Sick enough to send me to the hospital.  What a bummer.

Flash forward to this year.  I am in the middle of my spring break…and I am feeling great.  I am getting time with family and friends….indulging in good food and fun….and enjoying the great outdoors. 

I have a list in my head of things to do….

A bit of homework….time with my love….time alone…..sszzzleep…..clean house…..pay bills…..ride my bike….walk….water…..pay attention to my body….pamper myself….make no plans…..

So far it is working beautifully!

    Enjoy YOUR spring break. I get mine the end of May beginning of June when honey goes fishing with his cousins in the 1000 Islands for 4 days and I have that whole time TO MYSELF. I take a vacation week that week and enjoy my time home alone.
