What I Did on My Spring Break Because I Do Not Seem to Know What Vacation Means...

1) Ran seven miles, over the course of three days.

2) Made a curtain for my breezeway door -- with fabric tape. Hey, it still required firing up the iron and measuring and creasing the fabric.

3) Took Ziggy to the vet to get groomed.

4) "Sprung cleaned" the family room -- washed the curtains, slipcover, and pillowcases to "freshen" up the room. (And remove that fine winter patina of cat hair.)

5) Raked nine bags of leaves/yard waste out of the front yard. (Freakin' neighbors. I think they are DUMPING their leaves in our yard!)

6) Started -- and finished -- my orange soccer hat for the spring (outdoor) session.

7) Spent one morning washing all manner of bedding after The Beavis got sick. Moms -- you know what I mean. Ew. Ick. Bleck.

8) Started knitting on The Zephyr Girls' Juliet.

9) Vacuumed stray dust bunnies/cat hair out of the basement.

10) Purchased a seed started kit for tomatoes and Swiss chard. Let's hope those damn seeds start to sprout soon!

11) Edited The Beavis' five-page paper for English class, due AFTER break. Barbaric.

12) Removed the weird plastic stuff from our windows, got rid of the storm windows, and replaced all screens. Yay...spring has sprung!

13) Scheduled a yard waste pick up and large garbage pick up for all the crap in the garage.

Woo-hoo! What a vacation. Now I have to go back to work to escape all this housework.

What did YOU do on your spring break?

ADDENDUM: I guess I should add that I finally, freakin' updated my blog, too!
