Making the Most of It

If I've counted right, today is the fifth work holiday I've had in about seven weeks (including Thanksgiving, the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day), and also the last one I'll have for 19 weeks (I don't get Presidents' Day off for some inexplicable reason even though it's a national holiday).

So I'm staying up a bit late to enjoy every minute of it.

I crammed a lot of stuff in today: did a load of laundry, changed the sheets, cleaned the bathroom, took another yoga/spin class with Zach and Annette, read 300 pages of my book-group book, made it through the requisite rain-induced power failure in our infrastructure-challenged neighborhood, had an intense deep-tissue massage, enjoyed Zach's home cooking (glazed pork chops, couscous, and wilted spinach, if you're wondering), and relaxed in our comfy living room with two sleeping cats and one sleeping husband.

Not bad for a day's rest.
