Summer Break? Give me a break.

I’m getting really sick of my summer break. I am one of those people who doesn’t do very well without something to do. I miss work. I love my job. I miss my coworkers and my students. Josh had a few weeks off and we got to actually go a few places but now he’s back at work too. I’ll give you an example of how I cope with being cooped up.

    Things I planned to do on my summer break:

  • Read 10 books! Or more! There are so many books I want to read!
  • Make lots of hemp jewelry.
  • Take lots of pictures and work on my (nonexistant) photography skills.
  • Get lots of schoolwork done. What else do teachers do on summer break?
  • Spring cleaning! Clean my whole house!
  • Do lots of exercise and eat healthy.
  • Go on some nature walks and take pictures.
  • Bike rides.
  • Probably heaps of other productive things that I’ve forgotten about.
