Remember the movie Deperately Seeking Susan? There's a scene where Susan (Madonna) is reading her double's diary and says, "Nobody's life is this boring!" Well, it's been a boring Spring Break, and for me that's just fine.
I accomplished several goals: haircut, blankets/comforters to laundry, compost bin empties, compost spread on the garden, curtains washed and put back up, yada, yada, yada...
But most of all, I relaxed. I read. I twittered. I blogged, I plurked. I napped! I kept my family fed, got the teen to his appointments, but while he was sleeping in each morning, I chose mindless TV shows for myself, made my favorite coffee, and took things easy. Very, very easy.
There isn't much blog fodder in a boring week, so I was glad I had a few posts ready in advance. That, too, is fine with me. Boring means less stress, and that's a wonderful contrast to my usual workday level of hassles.
When school starts again Monday, I'll have my schoolbag filled with corrected papers and new lesson plans. But most of all, I'll welcome my class with a relaxed and revitalized me. And that, my friends, is what a Boring Spring Break does for me.
