Remember vacation when you were in college? I mean, the days of undergrad when your responsibilities were really minimal. Maybe my experience was different from others but I used to get sick of vacation by the end of vacation. I couldn’t wait to get back to the grinding routine of work, school, study. Those days are sadly over for me. I’ve been on vacation since Friday. Today’s my last day. As a working adult I’ve never taken more than five days off and five days just isn’t enough to get sick of vacation. It’s still only 6am in the morning, I have a full free day ahead of me yet I still feel devastated about going back to work tomorrow.
Oh well. It has been a nice few days. I had all kinds of projects planned but decided to put them off for some other weekend when I’m feeling particularly energetic (sporadic bursts…hopefully I’ll have one soon because the craft room is looking pretty ugly). On Saturday Mike and I left Liam at home with his grandparents so we could go to Tulsa and have delicious lunch with some friends, Diama and Matt. Diama is someone I met while attending library school and with each visit we find we have more and more in common. I’m just sad that we have to live an hour away from each other, which makes setting dates to get together more complicated. We were going to spend the rest of the day in Tulsa but the mere thought of driving in Tulsa traffic on a Saturday for the next four hours brought on a terrible heavy headache so we just went home and fell into bed and took a three hour long afternoon nap. Haven’t had one of those in a long time.
Sunday I spent at my moms watching Upstairs Downstairs and doing crafts. This is pretty much a set Sunday thing for us now, were turning it into a tradition. I’m currently working on knitting a pair of socks and trying my darndest to finish off my sister-in-law’s granny square baby blanket. Last night we had a relatively quiet day at home which ended with me going to the movies with my dad. We went to see National Treasure: Book of Secrets which was decently entertaining and would probably make a really fun ride at Walt Disney World, especially if it includes all that water (shhhh…don’t tell anyone but the Aztec Temple of Gold is actually located in South Dakota).
As for today? No idea what I’m going to do. I have to make it last somehow. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
