and so the week comes to an end...

I just needed to add a few more memories to the spring break list:

~A play date with my good friend Julie and her kids.

~A trip to the Library

~We were able to have dinner with my mom yesterday night and then we tortured Mark with an old Musical: Show Boat. He built us a roaring fire anyway! What a guy!

~Today we celebrated the life of a great man, Jeremy Diller, who passed away last week from cancer.

~I squeezed a nap in this afternoon.

~I decided the bushes in the front had turned into a jungle and it was time for a trimming, although it probably looks more like a hacking. I had to take advantage of the motivation so I continued to hack away at the bushes in the back yard. I'm sure that if my neighbor was watching she would be cringing. At one point she said a couple of the bushes were pretty valuable. Too bad I can not tell the difference.

~Finally I took on a tree that had started to die. I wish I took a "before" picture because it is gone now. I hacked off the branches and then went after the stump. I took it down all by myself. I felt very accomplished.

I suppose it is time to start thinking about earlier bed times and lesson plans.

How many days until summer break?
