I’m taking Thursday off work, giving me a 4 day weekend. I have no plans, really, other than just not going to work.
It is likely a sign of slight burn out that I don’t care what I do, as long as I’m not at work. 4 days sounds luxurious. 4 days without specific plans and constant motion sounds like heaven. Usually I only take time off for travel or conferences, but right now I just need to chill. To relax. I suppose this is what is referred to as a “staycation” but it really just feels like sanity.
Which isn’t to say I won’t try to get some stuff done, small projects and adventures. But I’ll likely take some lovely naps as well.

Sounds like an awesome four-day weekend of no plans. I would say I am envious but you’d probably shoot me

My son loves this post. He said to tell you, “Oink, oink” and “meow” (because he saw your avatar in my blog surfer). Have a great staycation.

@ Sorrow – I’ll take at least one nap for you! I’ll likely have a few to spare. And books are always on the agenda!
@ rich – well, you’re working awfully hard in your summer vacation, so I’ll likely end up relaxing more in my 4 days off than you will all summer!
@ heather – isn’t it sad that 4 days feels like (and really is) a luxury? I will definitely enjoy it.
@ FW – lol. Glad he enjoyed the pics, and I’ll definitely enjoy my staycation!
