I Should Feel Guilty For Taking Their Money

Today was strange; but in a good way. I had two classes to teach; they were both cancelled. Leaving me to do whatever I want all day. Except for lunch duty but that was only a half hour. So, no big deal there. I thanked both teachers for cancelling me While they were in the midst of apologizing. Never apologizing for giving me a break I told them both. I meant it too. I still mean it. It has been a terrific start to my Thanksgiving break; a day early. I should feel guilty taking their money, but I don’t.

I have to admit I have never felt this lazy.
