December 7th...

Oh yes one more thing I love about my job... the down time also known as vacation to those in the daily grind.

You see, we work hard, extremely hard throughout the semester, but in this profession we are given the opportunity to rejuvenate so when that next semester begins we are ready and will to face it.

Right now we are grinding to a halt for the year and I am looking forward to a few weeks off to relax and not check e-mail if I don't want to and read for pleasure.

But for most of us educators we also use this time for maintenance, personal maintenance surgeries and such so we will be there for the kids when that first bell rings again.
