The Grind

(and not the coffee kind)

(damn!)

We're back to it; I'm sleepy; I'm going to bed early. Our OldManDog seems to be ill; he's lethargic, slow, depressed, and seems pained. He's still eating and doing his 'dooty,' so that's good, but.... Couldn't get a vet appt. till Wednesday (grrr). I hope he's ok.

Back to school. The kids were cute today, at least. The week is mostly planned out, but I need to make sub plans for a couple of days each week for the next month! And they're all excused -- training, workshop, etc. Eek! And the AP test is fast approaching. Stress!

Isn't it amazing how quickly the relaxation of a vacation dissipates and melts away once you're back into your regular routine? I've looked at my spring break pictures every day since we've been back, in hopes of recapturing any element of that feeling. Pathetic, huh?

Dad's retirement party this weekend. Still have prep to do for that, along with some serious housecleaning; family coming from Bible Belt to be houseguests.

No pix today. I was rather coasting, casting about through this day. I'll make up for it later this week. Hope everyone had a decent Monday.
