Here in Hewitt Texas, our schools have allowed the kids to be off from school for a week, and they call it spring break. We have learned that many parents who work for a living, do not enjoy this so call spring break. Consider if you will, you have a kid or kids at home while you are working. What kind of trouble will they get into?
As I see it, there is a good point to this spring break and that is, daylight wasting time is this week and that allows the kids to get use to the time change prior to returning to school.
Spring break for this senior driver of grand kids, to and from school, should mean, “A week with nothing scheduled”. Well, I do get today off, but starting tomorrow, I will be driving to and from the grand kid’s home twice a day taking care of the animal population (would you believe it is a hundred miles one way). We will be feeding and watering the animal population because the grandkids are taking their parents on a vacation. Even though it will be in the 80s here in central Texas this week, there will be no spring break for the senior grandparents. Thank goodness we have something to do!
Let’s continue on this weather topic. Yep, it is going to be in the 80s this week, and we are supposed to have varying chances of rain daily. Temperatures that would make you want to get outside, and yet if you do go out in the rain, a sweet ole senior such as me, would melt.
Sugar melts in rain!
It’s spring, but is it a break!
If seniors weren’t broke, they could enjoy spring break, Don Ford
