Happy Holidays!

Hi out there! Anyone online? What are you all doing over this wonderful week off? My daughter is home from Pittsburgh for 4 more days, so we're going to do some fun "Mother/Daughter" things. Right now we're sitting in our living room doing techie stuff. (Are you surprised?) We both have our blogs up and are busy posting. (Lara says "HI!" by the way.) So what are we going to do? Not sure yet. We might go to Longwood Gardens for a visit. Have you ever been there? I've only been once, and that was a very very very long time ago. It's supposed to be quite beautiful at holiday time.

What else am I going to do? I want to put a fire in my fireplace and curl up with my new books. I got 4 new ones to read! (I get so excited about books!) I also want to get back into my yoga and running. (I took about a week off to get a lot of my schoolwork done- for report cards, student special reports, planning all of those exciting class lessons, and of course holiday preparation- I made my friends their gifts this year.) Don't want to get lazy and gain TOO much weight from all of the cookies and holiday goodies ; )

Well, if you're out there reading, drop a comment to let me know what you're doing. Hope you are all safe and happy!
xxoo,
Ms. Becker
