I gave notice at my job two weeks ago - about the time I went on my blog break. Coincidence? Probably not. I had been offered a fabulous new position that will test new skills for me and have a bit more variety every day. Another bonus - it's close to home, cutting my total daily commute from an hour and a half to about twenty minutes. My old car is going to appreciate the break.
I just finished up my last day at the current job, but, I scheduled in a little me time before starting the next one. Mostly because I got called for Jury Duty, but partly because with vacation getting reset with the move, I need a summer break. And so, with my week and half to myself, I plan to:
*Enjoy a lot of pool time *Be a more attentive blogger *Finish up some projects around the house *Cook dinners for Mr. B * Thoroughly clean the house *Read *Spend time with my family *Run *Get a tan by the pool *Find plastic wine glasses for drinking wine by the pool *Transplant the herb garden outside *Relax *Swim
I'm looking forward to it. And between blog posts, you can find me at the pool. Feel free to swing by.
