I am going to make Bob a to do list.
He probably will be glad to have it.
Tomorrow I do not have anywhere I have to go and that is a relief.
I enjoyed coffee and visiting with Jane last night, instead of waiting until Saturday...

My van has needed an oil change since we got it. Hubby could do it, but it is too hot, too cold, too wet, etc. He had the oil and the filter.
Hubby called the favorite mechanic. Had an afternoon appointment but I reminded him he...

For those who don’t know, I live in the USA (Maryland, to be exact), and this Thursday is Thanksgiving. I’ll be working today, tomorrow, and Wednesday. Then, I’ll be enjoying a four-day break from the writing world. I’m looking...

My husband, George, has been looking to retire. However, for the past year he's cut back on his hours to make retirement easier on him. Since he's worked full-time up until the end of last year, he has vacation hours to use. Which...

Phew!
Today was really crazy. The twins were up to their usual shenanigans, then at naptime one of the little guys who's usually not very difficult started rolling around in his crib and crying--loudly. My boss said she thought...

Hey there, everyone. I hope you're all doing well. I have a little time before Blue Bloods, so I thought I'd make another post.
The "no work messages" portion of my vacation is coming to an end, as I did let my clients know that...

Hey there, everyone. I'm updating on my phone, so if anything needs to be edited, I'll take care of it later.
I didn't do much earlier except grab a shower and wash my hair. My younger sister at our best friend's house right now....

Now we're on today, the fifth day of vacation. It doesn't really feel like it's been five days, but maybe that's because I don't quite count the weekend. But I didn't do anything more than schedule my NKOTB (New Kids On The Block)...

I wasn't sure what was in my agenda for Tuesday, but my best friend texted me to see if I wanted to run to Shoppers (grocery store) with her after she dropped the Little Guy off at school (she's off until Friday, btw). It was my...

So, as I said in the previous post, I spent the night at my best friend's house. The next morning, we got ready to take her son to his first day of (in-person) school. Schools re-opened in March, with all precautions in place, but...

Hey there, everyone. I meant to update more than I have been, but quite frankly, I didn't feel like getting on my laptop. I know some people update from their phone, but that's rare for me because I prefer to type on a full...

Well, I'm on vacation at home lol. But it's really just a vacation from my writing orders, not like a trip or anything.
So, if you read my previous post, then you know I pretty much pulled an all-nighter to complete and submit my...

Other than major holidays, it's rare I take off of writing orders for several days at a time. And even then, it's not uncommon for me to work on Halloween, Thanksgiving or New Year's Eve. The last time I took off like that for...

I'm still trying to use up all my vacation and paid time off days before my work anniversary April first. Two weeks ago I should have been paid for the three days I took off but it seems I don't know how to put in my requests into...

I still have some vacation and personal days left to take off before April this year. I'm taking one or two here and there and starting next week will take half days as much as I can until they're used to.
I worked it out to...

At my wound appt today it was decided I should get the next week off work but she doesn't see the need to have more than that. If she won't give it to me I'm sure my regular Dr would but there's papers to fill out and she only...

I just submitted my work and now, it's time to relax. My previous submission was so taxing that I spend sleepless hours working on it. So, now I was so relieved to have finished it, even if it's way past deadline. I'm thankful for...

I must admit that I am not going to know how to act when we get back to normalcy. It was a four day weekend as I had Christmas Eve and Christmas Day off...
Now I will go back tomorrow and work for three days.

Well. MyLot is of course is not a job. But either way I just decided I needed to take a day off from it, so that is what I did.
We all need a break from time to time, even from the fun stuff to do other fun stuff.
As per the...
