It is the weekend. It is a holiday weekend. And I have managed to schedule my work so that I actually have four whole days off. I cannot explain to you how excited I am about this.
So I’m sure you’re wondering what sort of amazing plans I have in place. Labor Day weekend is usually a big time for that “last bash” of summer, right?
I have nothing planned. NOTHING.
(Well, okay, that’s a lie, I do actually have a training plan I need to stick to.)
For the first weekend since sometime in mid-July, I don’t have any plans. I’m not going anywhere. I’m not racing. I’m not doing a 24 hour bike ride. I’m staying home and I could not be more excited.
Admittedly, I have a huge list of things that I need to get done around the house. Let’s just say that my busy schedule has had a negative impact on my housekeeping skills. No critters have moved in yet, but the dust bunnies may become sentient if I don’t take care of things soon.
But I also plan to sleep in (except for my long run day – gotta beat the heat!) and take the time to cook meals I will actually enjoy and just enjoy the freedom of doing what I want when I want. Plus I’m looking forward to actually having an uncluttered house again. I painted the closet the first weekend of July. It’s high time the ladder gets put away.
