I know that the pollen count is exceptionally high right now. I hope that is why I have a sore throat and a tickle of a cough. If it is pollen allergies I have only made them worse, because I have mowed twice. You did know I...

I get disappointed

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169477) • United States 6 Apr 24

I get disappointed in myself for not working hard and getting things done. I should do more than I do here at home. Going outside and doing stuff was on my radar, but it is raining now. I am still putting purchases away from...

I got out of bed

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169477) • United States 2 Mar 24

My carpal tunnel or whatever it is disturbed me this morning. I have been awake since around 3 a.m. but did not get out of bed until 4:30. I have a three day weekend, sort of. I will go in to work for about an hour Monday...

I cannot believe I am off work

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169477) • United States 23 May 23

I am sure eventually it will sink in, when I do not have other things to get done. There are fun things I want to do, and cleaning and organizing to do. My daughter will be here about bed time tomorrow night, and that will be...

Extra days off...

Stacey @xstitcher (39034) • Petaluma, California 26 Mar 23

Well, one extra day off, anyway. When I left Thursday, my boss told me that she wouldn't be needing me Tuesday, due to some of the kids being on vacation. That means I have an extra day at home this week, which means I can...

Taking a Little Break

Jim Bauer @porwest (112876) • United States 4 Nov 22

Dammit. I did it again. I burnt myself out from myLot. It is what it is. So, I will still be around of course, but I am going to take a little bit of a break. For those of you on the left you can of course call for your parties...

Visitor this afternoon.

Stacey @xstitcher (39034) • Petaluma, California 12 Apr 22

A lady from church is coming by this afternoon--she's been asking to see my apartment, and I haven't been able to have her over because I've been busy in one way or another. I told her at church that I have a couple of days off...

Family Time and other stories...

pumpkinjam @pumpkinjam (8876) • United Kingdom 28 Jul 21

Good morning (for it is morning for me as I write). I'm curious still in bed, although wide awake. I can have a little more time before I get up for work - advantage of working from home being that I can roll out of bed, no...

Two days off and nothing to do. Do you believe that?

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38865) • Midland, Michigan 25 Feb 21

If that were true I could always spend my whole days here but I have things I do want to accomplish. While coffee is brewing I'll name a few not necessarily in this order: Take chicken out of the freezer for something for...

Switching My Weekend Around.

Tammy @tammys85 (31417) • Baltimore, Maryland 23 Oct 20

One of the perks of being self-employed and a freelance writer is being able to set my own schedule. Of course, I still have deadlines that sometimes cause me to work late or on the weekends (but it all depends on my time...

We are headed into a long weekend. We are off next Monday for some reason. Teachers may have meetings or something. We actually have not had a normal routine at school yet. I am going to do my best to really enjoy being at...

The timing was great

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169477) • United States 18 Jan 20

They cancelled school yesterday and to me the timing was terrific, because I have been fighting a virus all week. I was able to stay home and not feel guilty about them needing a substitute, as no one was at school. Yesterday I...

Slow and Easy

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169477) • United States 20 Dec 19

School is a half day today, no need to pack a lunch. Casual pajama like clothes, no need to put on makeup or fix my hair fancy, just relax. I am ready to head out the door. This afternoon I will go for coffee with my friend...

Tomorrow is the start of the new work week at my job and my only day off for this week. The work week ends on Tuesday, but then I'll be off for my daughter's 15th birthday and my son's 17th birthday so I'll actually have 2 days...

Where did the days off go?

Cheyenne Sandy @Frenzys9 (172) • United States 17 Jan 18

I had a three day weekend, and sadly, it’s about to come to an end. I work tomorrow. Why must weekends come and go so fast? I guess I just have to accept the inevitable and go back to work. I spent my days off doing absolutely...

Are you taking a day off this week-or ever?

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 3 Jun 17

Some never take a day off. They work for an employer, work a job at home, take care of pets, family, a house, property, vehicles, older neighbors and more! While we hear people say they have a day off, which usually means they...

20 days off?

The Invisible Man @TheInvisibleMan (17594) 8 Feb 17

Yesterday I already managed to reach the minimum amount to be on the pay list next month. Theoretically I would have 20 days to "rest" and take some time off from the site, but no... I won't do that. The reason? Obviously I...
