so yesterday, i got to sit around thinking various happy thoughts about how i was making money just sitting around drinking beer, and it was good. it was very good. and today, well, i'm basically spending my salary to be home, every hour, i'm out another -- well, hell, it's not very much money! i can afford this! not. but then again i couldn't afford not to give myself the four days, four whole beautiful days. it's such a refreshing feeling, already into day two of this weekend, and two whole days to go. and as a courtesy to everyone who's suffering through floods and heatwaves, i'll refrain from telling you just how beautiful the days are.
it's quite lovely. the parents are in town, we're heading over there this evening, expect pictures (i'll also have all the three kids in one place at one time, a rare occurence, and yes, lots of pictures later on!)
hmm. perhaps a nap.
YAY! i looooove four day weekends! i started my vacation yesterday and stayed up 31 hours straight! insane. but after a good 11 hours of sleep, i'm doin' the timer thing ... 15 mins here, 15 mins cleaning, 15 mins packing, 30 mins sewing/cutting, 15 mins reformatting my borrowed-for-the-trip laptop, 15 mins here... and so on and so forth... i love the timer thing! i get more done and i don't lose track of time doing just one thing ... :)
Sounds like you got a long weekend for 4th of July. Enjoy it, I envy you. I could use a holiday myself. Enjoy your family gathering also.
Have fun with the 'rents, kd! :)
i want to make money sitting around drinking coffee. yeah, only in my wildest dream.
well, i do that at work a lot, i mean, if i'm not busy, i pretty much get paid to drink coffee, shoot the shit with my boss, things like that. and then when i am busy, well, i get to play with websites. it's a pretty sweet gig, really.
yay, kd! i hope that you have a great weekend, doll!
*yay* for pictures!
Yay for KD, yay for pictures and YAY!!! for four day weekends. I envy you, KD. We have a potential REALLY LONG weekend coming up in August. The first is a Thursday, and its a public holiday, and the Tuesday in the following week is also a public holiday, so you done know (can be sure) that some people will take off from Thursday, Aug. 1 until Tuesday, Aug. 6th. Unfortunately, I may not be one of them, as that is the period being bandied about as the go-live date for this software upgrade I've been working on. I will be at work all day, every day over that period. AAAaaarrrggggh!
Mad Bull seems to forget that there is a simple solution to this potential problem. CALL IN SICK!! :-) Just a joke. Work can be a real pain but when we don't have it it's even more painful.
oh, good point Dr. D. it is indeed a great thing to have work to need time off from.
