The CK Daily – Spring Break Season
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday!
Hope everyone survived April Fools Day without getting pranked too badly! The whole concept of April Fools Day is pretty silly in and of itself. I did a quick Google search to learn the origins of it, but it seems like there’s no clear answer other than this day has been celebrated for centuries and by a range of different cultures. I guess it’s good to know that humor and pranks are timeless traditions that unite us all!
With it being the first week of April, it’s Spring Break around here which is a nice change of pace. I’m mostly working this week but will be taking a little time off to hang out with my nieces and nephew who are out of school for the week. I’ve been promising each of them a “fun day” where they can kind of direct the day and decide where we go/what we do. Excited to finally make good on the promises and spend some quality time with them!
What are your Spring Break plans!?
