Vacation

I've taken about a week off for our anniversary and for house projects, etc. I don't know if I've accomplished so much, but I've enjoyed it immensely. The house is looking ever more presentable and our stuff more usable.
Since I have once again structured this time off from mid-week to mid-week, I'll not be cutting into my vacation time very much; this move was made more by habit than necessity as I have stockpiled over 3 1/2 weeks of vacation pay which I couldn't use all at once even if I wanted to. I hope to make use of the time more prudently before next holiday season by taking weeks off here and there. I just need to plan for them.
