A Week Off .. Full of Appointments

So, my district has this week off for winter break. My students shared their plans with me for their vacation. So many of them are going with their families on great winter retreats to go skiing, go to a sunny and warm destination or just visiting family. Some of them will be staying at home having playdates with friends.
My husband took this week off so we can spend some quality time together with our 'furry' kids. So what are our fantastic plans .....get my car fixed, go to our yearly eye doctor appointment, do our taxes, visit the dentist, and take a day trip down the shore. What's up? Don't you just wish you could become Flat Stanley and slip into someone else's suitcase to enjoy a special vacation?
Well, no matter what, we'll have a fun time. We won't be sitting on a beach anywhere (unless I buy a bag of playsand from home depot and put my beach towel down on it) or any skiing vacation but we will enjoy our week sleeping in ... not having to hit snooze. So for anyone else that is off this week ... enjoy whatever it is that you plan to do.
