I’m on Workation
When the kids are away, the mice will…work
It’s March Break and school’s out for the week. This week I’ll be taking a workation.
Definition
A workation ensues when your kids are away on a trip… without you (the parent). Thus permitting you to:
- Be incredibly efficient getting out the door in the morning (no lunches to prepare, no lost items to urgently find)
- Work late without fear that the children will starve or eat candy for dinner in your absence
- Dine on cereal (like being an undergrad again!) or sushi (why not treat yourself?)
Example
Jack and Janet went on a trip to their grandparents’ house. They tried to paint a goat-house and made a mess. Mother and father went on a workation.
