Five more days! Yet another countdown for me, I have five more work days to get through and then I will have off until the 15th. This is very exciting for a number of reasons. Vacation is always good. Holiday pay is always good. The two girls coming from Georgia is wonderful. Time off is great.

Over!
My week of vacation ends on father’s day. Ken has gotten to talk to all his daughters so that is good. I have so much left on my to do list but I feel good about the week off. I got stuff done I wanted to and I feel more relaxed and able to cope with life in general.
Today I’m going to work on stuff I want to – it is still my vacation. I started two new crochet projects. One is a sweater for Vicki and the other is a small afghan (large shawl) for Beth. The yarn for Beth’s is exquisite but very expensive. So far I’m loving the pattern. It is working up quickly which is always a bonus. I’m also enjoying working on Vicki’s sweater. The pattern is also easy and I think will work up quickly. The thing with her project though is I will have to work on it only when she is around because it will involve figuring out how to custom fit it to her. When I’ve done it once I’ll write it up so I know for the next time if she likes it enough to repeat the pattern.
Stacation
This week I’m on a stacation as everyone is calling it now. I’m not going in to work but hanging out at home. Over the weekend I got some more of Stephanie’s afghan done. I’m down to about two and a half rows. One of my goals this week is to finish it.
Hiding Out
I’ve been hiding out for the last month. School ended and I got two A’s in my classes. Yeah!! But after I was so stressed out I retreated into escapism. I’ve been watching tv, playing facebook games, reading and crocheting. I just needed some down time from everything.
Return from Vacation
While I had guest bloggers covering two weeks ago, I was on vacation and getting a ton of homework and other things done. I enjoyed my very productive week off work.
One More Work Day!
Tomorrow is my last work day for a week. Every morning I’ve woken up and said the number of days left until I am done for Spring Break and my vacation. I’m looking forward to my vacation. I was hoping for some serious writing time but sadly I think I’m going to be doing a lot of homework during my vacation.
Friday / Vacation
I guess since the homework is due on Monday that should probably take priority but I also feel like I’ve not put enough time into the freelance work I have to do. I guess I need to take a deep breath, pick from the pile and just dig in. It will all get done because it has to but still deep breath, stop procrastinating and get to work.
Back at Work
Vicki and I spent a nice quiet evening listening to music and reading. I actually managed to say at the end of this chapter I’m quitting and did it. This rarely happens for me – I usually read three more chapters. I’m going to attempt to do the nearly impossible and go to bed earlier than 11:30 tonight…
Four More Days
I have four work days, one final exam, and a lot to get done this week. Then I’m on vacation. I cannot wait.
Georgia
We had a great time visiting the girls. Their new apartment is beautiful and fairly spacious. It definitely fits the girls and their needs. Just having the washer/dryer in the apartment is a huge convenience and bonus for them.
