After a frenzied fall, the holiday break has been a nice reprieve. It was insane leading up to the break, with holiday parties and school concerts and semester exams and lots of work deadlines to meet. But everything pretty much dropped off on December 20th. No yelling at the kids about homework. All my cases are on simmer instead of roiling boil.
And the mornings are so relaxed. I can sleep until the sun comes up, leisurely prepare for the day and then head to the office with virtually no traffic. When the kids are in school, I spend at least 1.5 hours in the car in the morning. Over the holidays, my commute, sans the 20 mile look to drop kids, is 30 minutes.
I'm not looking forward to getting back to the grind next week. PS is at the robotics kickoff event right now, which means that the robotics season is officially in full swing and will stay that way until April. On top of all of the craziness we have with all of the other kids' activities.
All of this just makes me ready for summer.
