Celebrate the Small Things 20-12-25

 

It's the end of the week, so what am I celebrating?

The end of the working year!

Yes, we wrapped up at work around midday yesterday and it could not have been soon enough.  I'm exhausted.  I'm not the kind of person who usually sleeps during the day, but when I got home, I had a nap.

It's been a long year without any real breaks since I switched jobs mid-yearish.  So, it's been a year since I had more than three or four days off in a row.  I intend to make the most of this year's break.

The next few days are going to be all about getting ready for Christmas.  I need to make my gifts, do some cooking and all that kind of thing.  I'm also going to try and go to a movie or two - I haven't been in a few weeks which is really not like me.

Then, right after Christmas, I'm going to the beach house down south for ten days which will be nice.  Lots of time to read and swim and do some walking in the bush.  It'll be quiet since it's just going to be me and my parents, but it'll be good.

I'm going to read through the new book while I'm away and try to figure out what it's missing, what it needs to be finished.  But other than that, I'm not planning to do any writing work while I'm away.  It's all going to be relaxation so I can go into the new year feeling replenished and ready for the challenges ahead.

What are you celebrating this week?
