Okay so I'm finally writing this from a week ago.. But I took a day off..

I got an email from our HR person, and she said, you have 11 days to use by Jan 1.. or they are gone... HEY dont need to tell this girl twice...

So.. off I go on vacation..

 

I call my buds down in South Florida.. we have no real plans.. but several of us were going to meet up sometime over the weekend... well.. that never happened...

 

I did have a wonderful time, visited one friend.. but mostly just hung out by myself.. .

 

It was a beautiful weekend... I stayed right on the beach.. it happened to be Jewish New Year so all the hotels were packed.. and everyone was dressed up.. and energy was in the air.. it was great..

 

I had a fantastic condo on the ocean, with a heated waterfall...that ran into a jacuzzi... and a huge pool... had a fantastic time.. doing nothing but swimming.. and wishing I could live on vacation forever... it made me realize how much i miss south Florida...

 

I came back to Jacksonville at 5:30 in the morning on Tuesday.. and had to be at work by 8:30...LOL.. so I was really tired, but somehow recharged... I had a great week.. wrote a ton of new customers orders up.. and my boss was thrilled.. He said if this is what time off does for me.. great... Go more often.. LOL... well 10 more days to use...

 

One thing that all that alone time did for me was help me refocus on me... on some goals.. and help me to prioritise some projects I have had simmering... I think the word for the next few weeks/ months will be "purge"... Being on vacation was a break from clutter of the day to day "real" life.. .and it was very freeing... I need more time for me.. (more time to play games :) ) and "stuff" is a time stealer... so I guess I'll be purging closets and the garage in the near future.. hey you never know what stuff you'll find while cleaning.. what treasures are buried within my home???

Well I'm off to clean out a closet... oh that can wait, .....

I've got vacations to plan... :D

Take care all,

SI

Sounds like you had a fantastic time.Man,i would love to be on vacation everyday but that would be what they call retirement.lol.I find when i go some where when i get a week or long weekend off it does help not only relax you but helps put things in to a better perspective.My in-laws have a wonderful house on a lake in wisconsin.Me and the wife try and go every summer.Its so quite and relaxing.You can read a book,take a nap,or play cards on the boat.No worries.
