Yesterday was such a tease

None of the schools in our county had school yesterday since it was election day.  It turned out there was nothing on the ballot here, but there is no way to know that before the school calendar is decided.  Because our schools are used as polls, from a safety stand point, they have decided not to hold school on election day.

It was an amazing day.  Of course, it started with sleeping in which is always wonderful.  Secondly, the weather could not have been more beautiful.  I had a couple of errands that absolutely had to be done yesterday and I didn't mind being out and about.  The sun was shining, the temperature was wonderful, and the humidity was low.  Catherine didn't have to work, and since baseball practice was cancelled even Andrew was home fairly soon after work.  It was a relatively care-free day without much to worry about.

Days like this are rare, and pretty much non-existent during the school year.  We are soooo close to having them more frequently though with our summer off.  With only twelve more days of school remaining (counting today), it is so easy to just feel like coasting into the end of the school year.  With high school students have finals though, it doesn't really work that way.  That's what makes yesterday feel like such a tease.  We are so close, but not there yet!
