Spring break

So far, spring break 2010 is the biggest misnomer on record.

Spring? There is no spring. We’ve had nasty rain and cold temperatures that rival most SF winter (or—OK—summer) days.

Break? Absolutely not. My kids have been out on break since Wednesday afternoon, and today is the toughest day yet. All three home for 11 consecutive days, all day long, and the inability to mix in park/playground/outside time is making for a very rough “holiday.”

Mix in the ill-conceived Easter candy, and it’s the perfect storm: they are bouncing off the walls. Sometimes figuratively, sometimes literally.

Maybe it’s time to mix in a play date.

Heh, heh, heh.
