Spring Break

It's Spring Break week for Des Moines Public Schools and what a wonderful week it is. Temperatures have been in the 50's so far this week and are predicted to be in the 60's today with possibly 70 degrees tomorrow. Who needs Florida with such lovely weather?

It has been an interesting Spring Break so far. I spent Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday fighting respiratory flu. Man, did it wipe me out. Not only did I sleep the nights away, but slept a good portion of the days away as well. Monday was the first day that I did not need to crawl back into bed; although, I did just sit in the recliner all day.

Yesterday I was finally feeling better. I used my time yesterday to do a little bit of spring cleaning. I bagged up all of my old clothes, to later be taken to Goodwill, pulled my broken dresser out of my closet and put a different dresser in and vacuumed the carpet in the closet.

In the afternoon, I took the kids to the park. They really enjoyed this and didn't want to come home.

Today will be a fun filled day. We are headed over to my brother and sister-in-laws house so that all of the kids can play together and then I will be meeting a friend for lunch.

I am trying to enjoy the few days that I have left knowing all too well that come Monday I am back at work with a count down to summer vacation.
