Vacation... or Just a Moment to Breathe?

Nope! it wasn't a vacation, I was simply taking time to breathe. I'd been away for about two weeks or was it? Ahhh! I lost tract of how many days I'd been away from mylot. Where I have been? hmm... at work, at our store and at home sleeping a lot, the introvert needed it. I strained my eyes while going through old emails from 2020 to 2025 and deleting those that aren't important. Eehh! I didn't even have time to clean my own email but I end up cleaning our branch email. Sigh... Then, I got caught up at our store financial records. Do some checking & tracking some documents, our bookkeeper is giving me a little bit of stress that I needed time to recuperate. Lastly, caught in between my supervisor and the audit team. The things that they should handle and communicate with was forwarded to me. I don't know what's going on with them but I still did what I can, reaching out to one of our head from the HQ asking for advice what to do with the charges of the damage goods during that accident happened back then. Phew! Thankfully, everything went well and got time to be at peace that I don't need to put a signage behind my swivel chair "Everyone back off! she's in the state of slumber" lol! How was everyone doing? Hi! It's been awhile.

Hello. It has been a while since I've seen you on myLot. Welcome back! It's nice to see you here. Nothing really important going on lately. Greeting old friends who decided to show back up on myLot again. Several people have returned while you were gone. You'll meet them soon. The photo looks like a nice place to get away from people and stress. I hope you're feeling more relaxed now.

@Jehanne All the ones who just came back are really nice people. They like to tease and play, just like I do. I think you'll like them, too. Even if you don't have time to nap, you should nap, anyway.

It sounds as if a lot of people have been counting on you and pressuring you to keep the business running well.

this is what happen when people at the office is so aware how reliable I am. As to our store, I'm the one my mother can count on as my siblings don't like handling some paper works.

yes, and my eyes got strained too so I needed to at least lessen my phone screen given I work mostly looking at a monitor. Needed to take care of my eyes.

I also cleared my email somehow. I haven't deleted a lot for over a decade. LOL! I have to make time to at least delete 10 per day. It was a lazy Sunday. I ate lunch and dinner and resumed studying languages even if it's just 30 minutes or so.

I am doing okay. Once someone told me this, going for a vacation on a foreign land is to go for a holiday on an exhausted state to see others who were in the same exhausted state in their own ccountry.

Lol! I almost count how many times I read the word exhausted. But I did count at the end.
