Today is my last day of 17 days off. It's been so nice to have all this time off but unfortunately I wasn't able to do a whole lot because my husband still had to work and of course all my friends were working as well. It was great to have some time to myself to relax and read and get some things done around the house. I even managed to apply for my official kennel name.
I was surprised with myself, I didn't get as much cooking and cleaning done as I thought. Come to hear it I didn't really want to work hard on my vacation - so I didn't. There will always be dust.
This lovely picture is one I took when we went to Moose River Gold Mines on Long Lake for our anniversary. I wanted to post it because I know when I go back to work tomorrow and get all stressed again I'm going to want something to take me back to a place of relaxation. Even though in this moment I wasn't 100% relaxed, I was more looking for something to do because I was in the middle of nowhere with no cell phone reception. It's still a nice reminder that at that very place nothing has changed and even though in a moment of relaxation I am still wanting to be busy.
I can't even say I know what it's like to be relaxed. When is it too much relaxation? Is it ever enough?
These are questions I have been asking myself all vacation, 2 weeks of twiddling my thumbs. I can't really say I was relaxed, more bored, trying to stay busy. I felt unproductive. Relaxed is when I come home from a long day at work and have a hot bath and a glass of wine (and maybe some bacon). That's when I felt relaxed.
Anyway's, maybe I just need some kids to keep me busy and will look back at this post and kick myself. I also shouldn't be complaining because I just had 17 days off and some people (my husband) don't get vacation. So THANK YOU to my wonderful boss for this vacation but I have to say I'm ready to get back to work!!!
