Self-Care Day #MTBoSBlaugust

No reflections, no plans, nothing particularly school-related today. A few teacher-friends and I met at a friend's pool and enjoyed one of our final days before we return to the classroom.

We talked about school, of course. But that's just part of what we do when we get together; we can't help ourselves.

After being in the sun for several hours, I am relaxed and increasingly sleepy. I plan to veg out in front of the TV for a while and then head to bed at a decent hour.

No school work today.

It's been a self-care day. They are always needed in the life of a teacher, and in our present circumstances, they are even more important.

I hope we all remember in the coming school year to take time to do something else besides school and laugh with friends.
