This is the second year that the Claremont USD has taken the whole week of Thanksgiving as a holiday, and although it puts the beginning string students a little behind for learning Jingle Bells for Winter Sing next month, I have to say that I am greatly enamored of this time to catch up and try to get ahead.
This week I have been able to have appointments for: routine blood work, eye appointment, teeth cleaning, haircut. I have also been able to clean up areas of the house that have needed it. I have drafted my Christmas newsletter and have wrapped some Christmas gifts. I worked on the peppernuts. Lesson prep has included string classes, Winter Sing prep, and just knowing the general plan of what will take me through December lessons. I have also gotten to read books which is good since the library has come up with a handful of books arriving all at once. Oh, yes, I have also had time to practice violin and viola.
I could do with one of these kinds of weeks every two months or so....
