This was a long weekend! I had Saturday, Sunday and Monday off. And I needed it.

Some highlights were… Friday was a no students day, just teachers, so we did had the whole school to ourselves. I love the kids but I also love how quiet the halls are with no students.

Saturday we had the usual activities: yoga, gymnastics, and R is back on skates! It started snowing in the afternoon, making the house feel cozy. The kids watched a movie while I read and finished (!) my book. My Russian friend K visited with her baby and older son in the evening. We had salty fish and potatoes (a Russian tradition).

Sunday was very rainy and very windy. I started worrying about some of the giant pines we have in the back yard. Putzed around the house. Watched another movie. I read my new book.

Monday was a “let’s run around and get everything done before going back tomorrow!”day. Physical therapy, then piano lesson, then a weekly grocery run, an ortho appointment to check on my Invisalign and an evening yoga class.

Finishing up with a cozy picture of these two I took on a cold and rainy Sunday morning.

Overall, the weekend was really good. I actually rested! On the front- a rainbow L painted on a Post-it.
