At this point, I've finished everything I have to have done today; last edits back to the co-worker in Vienna, the help system for the product shipping today does indeed work (thanks to co-worker Andy, who was also the one who mucked it up in the first place...) so I'm now just killing time till I leave in half an hour.
For a month. A whole, big, wide month that I don't have to be at work.
It's such a glorious thought that I don't think it's really even sunk in yet. In fact, I've sorta been wondering about what to do with myself. It's been a very long time since I've had a pretty much unstructured week to myself. No Jet, no Graig (he's still gotta work for another week till his vacation starts), no real plans... and I'm realizing that's ok. There is some stuff I'd like to accomplish, but I don't think I'll be too broken up if I don't accomplish it either.
I want to do some swimming, I want to get back on my bike (I won't push it), I want to go on another field trip with Jet's daycare, I want to write some stuff, I want (and need) to finish editing Graig's book, I want to weed my kinda neglected garden, etc.
I want nothing taxing, just relaxing.
'Cause after that, its nothing but family time as we first go to my grandparents' cottage for a few days, and then start the long haul to Thunder Bay to visit Graig's family. Which I'm both looking foward to and dreading. I'm dreading the drive, but looking forward to being there. This is why I've always said if I could have one superpower in the world, it would be teleportation.
T-minus 15 minutes. I'm starting to get excited.
work,
vacations
