Monday Ten - Spring Break

It's spring break at my home, so I've listed ten things about spring break.

1. Up until a couple of years ago, I had worked every spring break since graduating from high school.

2. I now try to take spring break off, so I can spend more time with my family. (That's what I'm doing this week.)

3. Spring break is only truly great if you have the financial wherewith all to actually go on a great road trip.

4. Walmart is not a great road trip.

5. If a road trip is not feasible, then a round of golf is a great substitute...provided the weather is good.

6. Spring break might be better spent at a casino, because the weather is a crap shoot in the Midwest.

7. I suppose an advantage to spring break in the Midwest is that you can get a lot of honey-do projects and spring cleaning finished...because there isn't a warm, sunny beach to distract you.

8. I like warm, sunny beaches. But, in the Midwest, the closest beach is the sandbox in your back yard...after you've cleaned the cat droppings out of it.

9. I'm sure pets don't like spring break, because the kids are home. Hence, they go and hide in the sandbox.

10. Since it's spring break, and the weather isn't completely perfect yet, we'll pretend like it is and treat this week as if it were the middle of May. BBQ anyone?
