It's the first Saturday of my summer break. It's nearly 4:00 PM.
I'm still in my pajamas.
I haven't been outside all day.
I had the largest of plans for today. I was going to wake up with the sun and go for a walk. I was going to clean my whole little home top to bottom. I was going to run some errands. Eh, it didn't so much happen. Thanks for not judging. You do this, too, right???
Instead, I've watched TV. I've eaten strawberries. I've started a book...read four whole pages! Oh, and I've taken two naps. It's been a productive day.
I feel like all those nights during the school year when I didn't get enough sleep are paying me back now. I guess I need to catch up on my sleep before I can officially start my summer adventures.
And those pajamas? I plan to lose them when I go to the grocery store in a bit, but you better believe they're going back on as soon as I get home. They're the key to my productivity, after all.

Pajamas make me happy...and yes, you definitely deserve as many naps as you want. You worked hard, now you have to rest up so you can play hard : )
ReplyDeleteSounds like the best day ever! I have two weeks to go but had a similar day. Couldn't sit still longer then a couple of minutes without falling out.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, at the rate I'm resting, I'm going to play harder this summer than I ever have! I'm feeling a bit more energetic this morning, so hopefully I'm getting all this catch-up sleep out of my system. Enjoy your week, friend!

Val, I'm glad you were able to enjoy a lazy day. Here's my theory: teachers spend those last few weeks running solely on adrenaline and then when school is over, you just crash. You have no choice! I'll be praying that your two weeks will go by as quickly as possible!

Oh sweet Julie! You are sooooooooooo normal! I used to do the same thing and in the very early years I would come down with some ailment from sheer exhaustion and low immune system. Rest, rest and more rest! Then, enjoy your summer break.
ReplyDeleteAnd people say that anyone can be a teacher.
Hugs and no judgement!

Annesta, glad to hear that I'm not a freak of nature :) I do this every year. It's like I have so much sleeping to catch up on that I have to do that first, and THEN I can move on with my summer. Here's hoping I'll get caught up soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, friend!

sounds like a perfect start to the summer!
ReplyDeletenow i want some strawberries!
ReplyDeleteSarah Barry, not a bad way to kick it off! Thankfully, I've been a little more productive and a little less sluggish since then. Lazy tends to be my default state in the summertime :)

Suz, get you some! I'm waiting for the farmers' market to open up, but I've been getting some really great strawberries at Publix. I don't know if you have one nearby...
