Lest my dailies turn into brief asides on the never-changing state of the weather, I’m going to talk about something else this Thursday morning. Holiday plans.
My plan is to take 5 vacation days off the week of Christmas, bookending it with 2 weekends for a total of nine glorious days away from it all and at home with the family. I have to figure out the way around the ticket necessitating a credit card, but aside from that it should be no big deal.
My family is going up north for Thanksgiving to Milwaukee, but I’m not going to be able to meet them there. I also don’t want to go to Phoenix in the slightest, which has an out of the frying pan into the fire feel to it (one desert for another, drier one).
Today’s dad’s birthday, the old man turns 59 and is still 3 times healthier than I am. Shame.
