Work is done and I am on holiday for 16 days.
I got to the office at 6.30am yesterday and spent the day chasing approvals and doing the work that two other people left undone and wondering why people make everything more complicated that it has to be. I deferred my hair appointment twice but in the end dashed out at 4.30, connected to wifi from the hairdresser and finished everything by 6pm.
I then got pizza and we watched another episode of His Dark Materials.
Despite being so tired and it being hot, I woke at 4am and just got up at 5 and wrapped Christmas presents. I was at Bunning's at 7 to buy cable extensions, did a huge fruit and veg shop at the markets, went to Coles and was still home by 9am.
I ate 3 very ripe figs and a piece of toast for breakfast but might need to have a little nap later. The fridge is looking very joyful.
16 days! How wonderful!
I really now wish I'd taken some extra days. Eight is good, 12 would have been better!
Are you heading to the coast this year?

hi carolbaby, we're avoiding the coast because of the bushfires and uncertain road closures. Oldest is house sitting for someone with a pool so am happy to be staying home
