I decided not to go into work today. One more day of Vacation. I just couldn't see the point of going back for just one day. So I ended up with 17.5 days of vacation. I must say I definitely needed it. But I am also glad to be getting back to work and a schedule. My biggest mistake over this entire vacation is I slept in nearly everyday till 8:30am. Which led to me just sitting around drinking coffee till around 10:30am. Then finally getting around to what ever around Noon.
I wasted the biggest part of everyday. But I have no regrets. I obviously needed the structurelessness. I have run my self ragged this year and I took this time to re-evaluate, rest, recuperate and rejuvenate. I know what I need to take care of... My health, My finances and My home... everything else will fall in line. Those are my goals. Short and sweet. I don't need a huge honking list to remind me of that and You don't need to be bored by one.
I haven't cleaned my office, but I did take care of some of the things that were piling up in there. I didn't reformat my hard-drive. I took Allen and Selector23's advice and cleaned it up some. It has helped. I took care of a couple projects that have been laying around for a while and I can't believe I waited so long. I walked a bunch. I spent a lot of time with my babies. And I cleaned up some of the cabinets. I did some work on the cars. Spent time with friends. Heck I even bought myself a pair of new shoes. (Yes, another pair). Got my hair and nails done. Did a couple of puzzles. Had a couple of fires in the fireplace. Saw my parents for a couple of hours. Started my way towards relieving some pain. Made some calls I had been putting off for some time, just because. Made my way down to IKEA and had the biggest $2.00 breakfast you have ever seen. Did all the laundry in the house - sheets, towels, clothes, rugs, etc... Got caught up on all the NCIS shows. And slept in every morning.
Not a bad vacation. Too bad it only comes once a year.
