Could it be?

Could it be? We actually have to go to work 5 days this week? How can they do that to us the week of daylight savings?! When I woke up with morning to an alarm, the first time in almost a week, I was shocked that it was still dark. I was warm, cozy, comfortable, yet tired. I peeled myself out of my bed and slunk across the room into the shower at a very mopey pace. I have already laughed about it with a few of my colleagues. At the beginning of the school year, I am prepared and ready for a 5 day work week. I have a schedule. I am in the rhythm, in the groove of a work week. But the second the temperature drops below freezing, every morning I wake up hoping for a snow day. From December until early March-- I wish that wasn't so, but who doesn't love a day of lounging around and getting things done around the house that we put off?! I have a mix of emotions. While it is great to spend so much time at home, parts of my daily routine are not as productive. I find that my productivity is in full gear when I know I am on a schedule, where there is no wiggle room. But with ample time off, those things seem like they can be pushed back. I like to stay busy and I love what I do. But I do love my sleep! 

Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho, it's back to work I go!

  2. Love the verbs you used today! It's funny how hard it is to get back to the regular routine when you've had an unplanned break because of weather. Just think, spring break should be coming up soon, right?
