If you’re heading south for March Break, please bring me a jar of sand, won’t you? Or better yet, don’t bring me anything and instead when you return from your relaxing vacation, lie to me and say you were simply cross border shopping in Buffalo for the week. As for your bronze glow? I’ll just convince myself you bought a Groupon deal for a spray tan. I jest. I’m happy for you. Well, I am deep down. Deep deep down under my parka.
Am I going away for the March Break? Why no, I am not.
I will be here at home, just like I am the rest of the year. The only difference is my children will be home with me. Won’t that be fun? Oh god, it’s gotten to the point where everything I write today sounds sarcastic. I AM excited that my kids will have a week off. No lunches to pack, no schedule to keep and the best part.....company! A mama gets lonely at home all by herself some days.

Happy March Break everyone (Yes, even you there in the bikini...I sure hope you don’t get a sunburn).
