It has been a VERY busy last quarter for me…and I’m already at my wit’s end. While I love the things I do on a daily dose, somehow I realized the need to escape from routine would do me more good. In other words, I need to distract myself from overwhelming mental and physical tasks. Aside from sleep, I need to go somewhere. My uncle Bloody offered his house up in the mountains for my weekend getaway. Hmm. I’ll think about who to bring there. Or maybe I’ll just stay at home and do something productive, like planning for the next year. (Weee!)
I’m down to my last list of Christmas shopping. It wasn’t really a long list. I managed to cut it down to half since most of my inaanaks are far and away, and I couldn’t locate the others. My friends are not that difficult to please either. I bought myself a nice black blazer last week, a pair of Nike cross-trainers (so I can start running), a watercolor pad (because I plan to paint…again) and Max Lucado’s book called “Fearless” which is I can’t find locally (maybe I have better chances of finding it online and go through those Amazon books as well). I also received my Christmas gifts earlier: a laptop case and a bag. Sweet.
I’m scheduled to take a break from work on Dec. 23rd and will be back Jan. 4th. That’s a whole lot of time in my pocket. Can’t wait.
