Psychologically I have been on my summer holiday since leaving work on Thursday. In real terms, I still have tomorrow to get through and then my summer holiday from work can begin.
14:42
I will not leave a minute later.
Term doesn't actually finish for us lowly term-time only staff until end of play on Thursday, but I had twenty-four hours of annual leave to take so tomorrow at 14:42 my summer can truly begin.
I have plenty of things to do to keep me occupied. My garden needs a bit of TCL. We're getting a new living room floor. I have at least one barbecue to go to. There are an awful lot of tellybox programmes I need to play catch-up with. Maybe I'll get on with doing some writing. I feel some genealogy research may be in order. I'm pretty sure I'll be taking part in some research at Hospital in August. I need a smear test. Qyzy needs a booster.
And before I know it the end of August will have arrived and I'll be grumbling about how much I didn't get done.
I really need to stop wishing my life away ...
One more day. Just. One. More. Day.

I read this wrong, which wasn't the wisest thing to do!

Only some. Some fall into the boring must-do category. :)

That's a lot of things to keep you occupied for sure. And I agree, time flies! But I prefer having too much to do than not knowing what to do.
Enjoy the summer!

Do you feel that anticipation is part of the pleasure?

I think so. I feel a bit deflated now my long holiday has begun. :)
