Still on Vacay

Well, the funny thing about vacation is that you have a plan going into it- starting new projects, finishing laundry, cleaning bedrooms etc.. then vacation hits and bam! you do nothing at all. Really it is just slipping away from me- Friday already. I just started my little guys room- all of five minutes worth- nailed the bookcase to the wall, sorted the books, threw out all the junkie fast food toys...

Why do the fast food stores waste their time with those items? Why not invest pennies a day in some type of learning program for third world countries? Like the kids need one more toy that gets left in the car or better yet, thrown in the garbage before they have even opened it.

So back to my vacation - I have done a great job steering clear of anything work related (except for the three or four emails I just checked and replied to...) I haven't driven past the store, haven't called in the store and barely thought about the store. I have questioned twice whether or not I should even work there.

Why do you think that nothing is going to get done this week? Do you think it is lack of ambition? A need to relax? Two kids rooms that once they are clean (I clean them 2-3 times a week) will be clean for maybe 6 hours. I just feel like hanging out in the house, watching movies and not doing anything.

Not working, what a novel thought. I know that my DH would love to keep me at home- which would be the death of us as I am pretty bored when I am not working. When I was on maternity leave for one year I micromanaged all of his family business from home. When he would come home and complain about someone doing something incorrect, wasting money or being late- I would draft up a full disciplinary report. That went over like a tonne of bricks. Not to mention that as he is on a fabulous little golf getaway (it rained today) he will come home and see that I have done nothing, nothing at all. And therefore, what on earth would I do if I were to stay home?
