Planning the Break

As of lunchtime tomorrow, I'm on a break for two weeks. 

This means I have to get a plan together. After having two months off, I'm missing the time off, even if I like my new job and the people I work with. 

Being the overachiever, I like to think I am, I want to set some goals for the time off, also knowing that I'll be spending some time in Adelaide. 

From the time I clock off tomorrow I'm turning myself back into a novelist. Back to writing the book. 

I need to exercise everyday - even when I'm over in SA. Thankfully Mum lives near the beach and although the beaches aren't great for swimming, they are wonderful to walk along the foreshore. I wonder if the pelicans will be back this year. 

The spare room needs cleaning out badly. At the moment, it's Lucifer's throne room - I reckon there's stuff that's been sitting there for over ten years that could be thrown out. I also need to rearrange the linen cupbooard. 

And there's the admin jobs:

  • The eyebrow wax (because I look like John Howard at the moment.)
  • The annual skin check. 
  • The leg wax. 
  • The annual eye test
  • A pedicure (I miss Dragon Nails in Darwin)
  • Pay the car rego
Then there's actually doing the Christmas thing. This year it's at Blarney and Barney's place.

Oh, and donating plasma on the weekend.

I've updated the Miffy board. 

I'll work on my active wear tomorrow so that when I sign off around lunch time, I can go straight to the gym.

I'm pumped. I've got some free time. It's awesome.
