But this summer will be different because I'm teaching so that knocks out a lot of the relaxation and the boys are going to camp. They've been going to camp for a while now. I guess the difference is I need them to go to camp.
Yesterday, we had a nice long relaxing day that started with them lying on the couch like lumps and watching TV until I made them turn it off around noon. Oh well. I know they need to decompress.
Today, a couple of their friends are coming over and I have a last minute assignment at Princeton University, so it won't be quite that long leisurely day. I guess I'm OK with that. I'm trying to make working from home work and that's won't happen unless I actually get assignments.
I also have to make desserts for the visit to my father. Once I'm through with that, I can move on to my true vacation on the Shore. I just want to lie on the porch and read and lie on the beach and read. Then I'll feel I'm really on vacation. Sigh.
