Counting during Spring Break goes a little something like this:
Zero -- The number of times I felt bad about not seeing my students for the next 5 days.
One -- Excited nephew who is coming to sleepover in just a few minutes.
Two -- Days until Garnet flies into town and the "girl time" begins. There is nothing better than girlfriends (and a quick shout out to their husbands who are willingly taking care of all the little ones to make this possible)
Three -- Books that I checked out at the library yesterday so that I can read all day long tomorrow if I choose too.
Four -- Tulips that have bloomed in the last 24 hours (I am sure that they know it is Spring Break and that I had high expectations for their arrival -- now if the other 12 or 13 would bloom that would be great)
Five -- Number of conference talks I printed off to prepare my talk for Sunday. Obviously, I don't know how to say no. . . seriously, it is my spring break, what was I thinking. I have to pick my favorite conference talk which means now I have to decide which one was my favorite.
Six -- Hours that it would take me to clean, organize and sort through all of my craft supplies and holiday decorations. I am undecided as to if this will be a "good" use of my time or not.
Seven -- Items that will come in my clinique bonus that I need to go to Macys and get when Garnet gets here on Thursday. I love the springtime bonus and I love Garn for reminding me that it was bonus time. It will be just like old times at the university mall!
Eight -- Stores that I will need to shop at when we go to the outlets in Park City.

Nine -- Time I can sleep in until if I choose too, but lets be honest I don't think I really have it in me to sleep that late. I might try just one day.
Ten -- Number of miles I hope to run at some point this weekend if the weather ever turns nice. Hopefully in under 1:20
3 days of Spring Break + one weekend = 5 days of vacation. . . . . and I am so excited I might not be able to sleep
(well that and the fact that Ethan will probably kick me all night long unless I can get him to sleep in the guest room).
HOORAY FOR SPRING BREAK!
