these past few months have been such a whirlwind at work, with one thing piling on after another. my best friends I and K are also feeling sympathetic work avalanche with me in their respective jobs. we lean on each other as we go through these phases. my sister and husband round out this support network both physical and emotional. no person can really do it without such a network.
one of my dear friends suggested i take some time off after this project is done, and do absolutely nothing for a bit. i think he literally said i should sit in my PJs for a good few days doing sweet bugger all. this is pretty novel to me, as a classic type-A. but truth be told, after pulling more 14 hour days than i care to count, it sounds pretty attractive right now. maybe i can get all my christmas things organized and the house decorated earlier than usual. ooohh and do some baking! my brain won't know what hit it!
