Midpoint

April break was wonderful. I enjoyed every minute. I painted ceilings, bought red dinner plates, cleaned every inch of my bedroom, went shopping with my daughter, watched hockey with Ken, cooked real dinners, went walking with a friend, stayed up late, made vacation plans for the summer, and relaxed.

Monday came too soon.

It has been hard to get up early to leave the house. The morning drive has been long.

Then today at lunch someone said something that made us all feel better ~ there are 35 student days left in the school year. That time includes two days of assessments for math and reading, a day at a ropes course, a day of community service, and at least another half day of special activities. We all agreed that we can do 35 more days.

Out of curiosity I went back through my planbook and counted how many days I have already worked. Today was number 35.

The midpoint. I didn't realize that I am halfway through.

That feels good.
