    And do you get more - or less - sewing done then?

    My kids are off school next week. Being that it is also Holy Week, I won't be getting much done.

    My kids have spring break next Friday through Monday. We have snow days to make, so they only get 2 full days off.

    As for getting any work done, it always depends on the day. Sometimes they are entertained, other times they spend the day bickering. :)

    My kids will be out from the 25-29 March, but don't finish school until June 8, because graduation is June 11.

    We only get the Friday and Monday of Easter weekend. They always do that - no real spring break. But all the kids are done with school by Memorial Day. Love that!

    My kids are grown but work is closing for all of next week. This is the first time they have done this. No raise but an extra week of vacation. My list is long but sewing is at the top.
