And the livin’ is easy–or so the song goes. I don’t know about that. Sure,
the days are long, the flowers are lush, and the fruits and veggies are
amazing. But despite the lovely weather, most of us still have to work.
Except on holidays. The
Fourth is usually filled with fun and relaxation. If we’re lucky, the holiday
falls on a Friday or Monday and we get a long weekend. This year, that wasn’t
the case, and now that the celebration is over, many of us are back at work. Whether
we want to be there or not.
Don’t get me wrong–I love what I do. Writing is my passion, and I thoroughly
bringing the ideas in my head to life. But on a hot summer day, sitting at my
desk and focusing on work isn’t always easy. The allure of heading for the
beach or the woods or simply taking a book outside and reading in the shade is
tough to fight.
So here’s my burning
question of the day: How do you fight the urge to play hooky?
Until next month and hoping
to learn some great hooky-fighting ideas,
Ann

Fish are jumping and the cotton is high - Love that song.
I work full time - but I try to take a vacation every summer. This year we are going to California in August.
Hi, Tammy-
Vacations help, that's for sure!Have a great time in California!
I'll being taking off a few days later this month and will be going to upstate New York.
BW, that sounds fun, too!
No ideas here. I adore playing hookey! We have such few long sunny days here, I never feel guilty for going outside when the sun shines.
Linda, you must live in the Pacific Northwest, as I do. It's so gorgeous here today... but I have been "good" and written my daily pages. Now I'm headin' out!!!
Have fun. Tomorrow the beach and Sunday, strawberry fields... Summer!
