Silver Lining: break's over (+ it's a filtered life)

January 3, 2013

break's over (+ it's a filtered life)

Today I'm going back to my 5th graders.

The end of break is something I always dread, but yesterday I made the life-changing discovery that I can wear leggings under my favorite maxi skirt and no one's the wiser. It's negative two this morning (yikes!) so I'm layering up and getting ready for an inside recess day.

Wish me luck today! And in the meantime -- some of my filtered favorites from the break.

Is your break over already?
How do you shake the end-of-break blues?

  1. I wish I had a break. Another reason I should have become a teacher like I wanted to as a child.

  5. You have just reminded me that I have to go back to work on Monday! I'm now actually checking exam papers. The kids had their quarterly exams the week before the break.
