What I did on My Summer Vacation: Day 1

Since Maddie is going to day camp, I have 8 weeks of child free days ahead of me.  So what am I going to do with all that free time? 

I have no idea. 

We have always done school year round in our home -- which leaves us flexibility throughout the year for vacations and random days off.  Plus, you don't spend the first month of each school year relearning what you've forgotten over the summer. 

So, I've never really had this much time to myself -- especially since I used to work before I had Maddie.

Yesterday was day one, and I have to admit that I didn't do much.  It was ridiculously hot here (as it is today), so I ran some errands and stopped at the library.  Exciting, don't you think?

Maddie is home sick today with a fever, sore throat and congestion, so today won't be very exciting either, but hopefully in a day or two Maddie will be back at camp and I'll have new projects to share.

I don't homeschool, but when I get big chunks of time to myself, I never quite know what to do with myself either. I eventually figure it out, but I have to spend the first, oh good 50% or more of it just loafing around. Which when I think about it, is very much needed.
Enjoy it. Hope Maddie feels better soon.

Excuse me...did you say "you used to work" before you had Maddie?? You are working at home, sweet girl. :) Enjoy this time for yourself. Get better, Maddie.
