Thanks for the rest

Because it’s the end of the first school quarter—which (I think purposely) ended with a half day on Halloween and the second quarter will begin the day after Election Day—my kids have had a 5 1/2 day weekend. It’s been glorious. Have I gotten much accomplished? No, but I needed a rest. Also, wouldn’t it be nice if Election Day were a federal holiday? Let’s get the people voting.
