I’m writing this on the 7th.  I’m a bit ahead.  Today is the first full day of summer vacation.  I checked out of school yesterday.  For those of you who don’t know, this involves me sitting around waiting for an administrator to come and check my room and sign a paper.  Some teachers needed the morning to finish cleaning and packing, but I didn’t.  I was all done.  So I sat there from 7 to 11 and watched Brave on my iPad, played “Liar’s Dice” with my son, and waited.

Once I was checked out though, we celebrated.  I took the whole family out for Ice Cream. Then we went to the movies and saw Iron Man 3 (really good).  And finally went to Famous Dave’s for Barbecue.

Today, I slept in… till 8!  Got up and did some writing, did some chores, and feel really good about not having to work for a while, at least on anything buy my books.  I’ve been writing as much as possible this past month and I’ve gone from being 336 pages behind to just 300 pages behind.  😀  And I’m just getting started.
