No, I do not have a litany of cool resources you need to check out. No, I am not presenting some revelation that will allow you to up your CRT game. Well, maybe I am: Chill. Lock your school computer away and take some needed time off. If you think you can use Spring Break to catch up on school tasks and household tasks and personal project chores AND be rejuvenated for the last 3 months or so of school you are mistaken. And if you think that what you do to and for yourself does not directly impact what you are able to do in classrooms and on campuses, you are going to soon find yourself spinning your wheels.

If, however, your students and staff are important to you, take a step back; not to reevaluate, contemplate, reflect or do any deep soul searching, just to be. Do what feeds your soul outside of who you are as an educator. 

The best way to power up right now is to power down. Happy Spring Break!
