First Day of Vacation

Day one of April Vacation. I am happy to be a teacher and have this time off.  We went to Dunkies this morning, since I had no food in the house. It was nice sitting there chatting with my kids. The older woman next to us thought I was their babysitter. That made my morning. But the car engine light refused to go out so I drove it to Michael's. I am so glad he is a mechanic I honestly don't know what I would do with  out him. He plugged my car into a nifty little computer that told him that my engine had misfired. He couldn't get it to do it again and chocked it up to a mechanical "hiccup". Not too reassuring but at least it didn't cost my anything. 

 Finally we made it to Stop and Shop and they actually were fine. I couldn't believe it. They were helpful and even bagged the groceries.

  The nieghbor came over and watched a movie with them, Space Buddies-very cute, and then we all went to the freezing cold playground. They had a blast though so I am happy we went. I brought my NEMTEC reading but it was just SO cold. I didn't get too much done. I do love The Discovery of the Child though. I am glad I am forced to read it again. 

 Now back again I should be doing housework but I am instead writing boring blogs.
