Last week was a short, quiet week at work. I was only in the office for two days because of Christmas and really, I left early on Friday because I couldn’t stand to sit bored any longer. Needless to say, I was not at my best. Goals were not met. But, I was able to spend three days home with my kids and enjoy some time with the people I love. That is much better.
Today is New Years Eve and my birthday; it is time to say goodbye to 2012! Honestly, it has been weird already. I woke up at 6am. That never happens. It is only 8am now that I am writing this post. I am shocked. Today should be fun; my kids and I are going to a local day spa to use gift cards we got for Christmas. Later, we will have a late lunch at one of my favorite restaurants and maybe do some shopping. My parents brough cake over last night, so, at some point, we will have cake. This evening, teen is going to dinner with a friend and staying the night, so I need to find something to do with my kiddo and Larry tonight. We will see what happens. Regardless, I am determined to send this year out with a bang!
Tomorrow is another day off and another day of fun. The kids are going to my parents’ house and staying tomorrow night/Wednesday. I get a kid free night! Hopefully, tomorrow night will be movies and a drink with friends. I am pretty excited. It has been a while since I got a night out kid free.
My work week starts on Wednesday; my plan is to get back in the office refreshed and ready to tackle my new goals. It would be wonderful to get up at 6am later this week; I am not holding my breath. But, for now, I am just going to enjoy a couple more days off, quality time with my family, and some much needed me time. Hope you are able to enjoy your New Years as well!
