time off

there are times when we need a little time off. when the list of stuff you wish you had time to do is growing faster than you can check them off. when the routine has become so crazy that it's not fun anymore. when you're not exercising, not spending adequate time with your Maker, when you've lost your joy. (i think that last one comes when the one before it is not happening!)

that's why i'm looking forward to 2 weeks in february. i don't have enough vacation days to do it, but i don't have enough reserves to not do it. i'm taking time off.

i'm being a bit idealistic, i realize, thinking that i will garden, clean the attic, bake, catch up on paperwork, get our taxes done, read a couple books, blog, have brunch with friends, sleep, go for walks every day and go to macworld. but that's ok. i'm gonna love trying!

i'll let you know how it goes...

I think you will indeed do all of those things you're planning on doing during your 2 weeks off. I'm cheering for you. Ready, set...relax (and be productive doing some things you truly want to do.)
