It’s the usual. I have to work to go on vacation. Even though today is Sunday and the last day of the four day weekend, I am going to the office. Emily is going to school. We are leaving for only four days this week but four days gone still requires some work to be done in advance to be sure nothing goes awry while away. Emily has to leave plans for her sub for each day which she says is as much work as being there. I have to be sure all the things that require me to be there so I work today on a Sunday holiday and probably a 12 hour day tomorrow. Short vacations aren’t.
Got to work early. I am planning on a two hour work day. Just need to set up one company to write checks while I am gone to hula land. Did not use the whole two hours, but I am done. And I can do something different tomorrow.
When I got home from the office Emily was still at work. I decided to wrap advent gifts. I really hate wrapping gifts. It’s the worst part of Christmas. I went through 50 gifts today. All wrapped. I am a gift wrapping phenom.
After Emily got home she finished sewing advent calendars. We are sending one to Michael since we won’t be seeing him at Christmas for the first time. Very sad.
I continued with the advent wrapping and wrapped another 25 gifts. My whole day is wrapping. We both finally finished up our separate jobs and went out to dinner. It has been a long work day.
Back from dinner. We are going to bed.
