spring break has broken! yay!

there is something magical about SB-- i think it is the fact that it is warm, but not scorching and you only have a week. do not get me wrong-- i love summer vacation--but it is a bit oppressive heat-wise and you feel like it will never end so you procrastinate. knowing i am already into day 3 of only 9 days off, i am hustling to get stuff done and feeling quite the sense of accomplishment.

today is day one of yardwork day. i just weeded the garden and moved the bricks. I have also taken oskar on a longer wok than he needed--- i mean, he i totally wiped out now. I should weed whack now--but it is one of my least favorite things--i hate loud noises.

i was planning on painting my bathroom--but I am totally scared that I will mess everything up. I have never painted before. So i altered my day just to include researching how to paint and then purchasing supplies.

i cannot express how happy i feel right now. spring break---even the phrase makes me happy! and 9 weeks left until summer vacation! jeez. life is good!
