How bad is it that it's only February 1st and I want a vacation? Not a go to the beach vacation, however that would be lovely. A stay home, rest, unwind, do something, mean something, figure it all out vacation. I have 158 hours of vacation, it's not like I couldn't afford a day off or two. But the idea of using the time and it not being what I want. What if I don't come back relaxed, what if I don't figure it all out, whatever "it" is. What if that just feeds a craving for more time off.
Funny how early in life I was driven by the idea of a career. I'd like to punch whoever sold me that bill of goods. Career, what is that anyway. Why is that important. The older I get the more I just want to be able to be at home, travel when I want, slow down and actually enjoy the day, my life, rather than autopilot to the end of the week so I can enjoy my off time.
I am sensing somethings out of balance here. I'd really just like to sit around in my pj's drink coffee and watch good movies for awhile.

Well I had a day off today, but had to have a root canal to get it! lol But you already knew that. :) I did get to spend a few hours shopping all by myself. It was blissful. Hope you figure out how to take some time for yourself.
Me too - let me know how we can get paid to do as we please :-)
take a bath, put your feet up and relax-- thinking about you-- but also know that i label february as my offical month to have and be in a funk! it's the shortest month-- so feel free to give yourself a funk day!
I feel the same way, I have so many hours of vacation time and haven't been one one since our honeymoon!
I'm with you. Today I just had to stay in bed and let my husband do the morning routine with the kids so I could have a break. I wish I could have stayed in bed all day... but I have projects that I want to get done!
{when I first read that I thought you had 158 DAYS of vacation} I started my job a year ago and haven't had a vacation in that year (that was part of the deal). I now have 2 weeks and am afraid to take any! But I SO need a few days off....
