It was a bit of a struggle this week, with four projects needing attention, projects that I needed to finish and ship, so I could move on. And I did it. I finished scoring funding proposals for a government agency, written materials and a PowerPoint for a January program, another PowerPoint that ended up being more work than I expected when I discovered that Texas has not adopted Model Rule 1.14, and a book review that I promised to write - I had read the book, and the book was good - that makes writing a review easier.
With all of that done, I set my out of office email message to Happy Holidays, I will be back next year. I am taking the rest of the year off.
I need this.
Oh don't worry, I will have lots of time to blog, and read and comment.
Good for you! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI slept late this morning.
DeleteHELL YEAH! GO YOU! we are just about finished for the year at my office. only 5 more business days...
ReplyDeleteMy office is open four more days, I won't be there. For too many decades I played the martyr of "someone has to be here." Time for me time.
DeleteSorry, I just can't get over this Happy Holidays thing. While Australia is very diverse in the city areas, we still wish Merry Christmas and even non Christian heritage people those of us with a Christian background will wish us a Merry Christmas. If non Christian heritage, we might say enjoy your break but I tend to say to say nothing but focus on wishing them all the best for the following year. Anyway, grumpy middle aged man hopes you enjoy your break from work and time out to rest and relax.
ReplyDeleteDealing with the wrath of Liz and Lori changed my ways on this.
DeleteGood for you. Enjoy every minute!
ReplyDeleteI plan to be selfish.
DeleteEnjoy your time off, you deserve it!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteI pretty much in the same boat. I work two days yet this year. Using personal days. That orchid picture is beauty-ful! Reminds me of my visit to Longwood.
ReplyDeleteThe orchid picture was taken in Cleveland last January.
Deletesee you in 2020 my dear
