It's odd, really. In fact, amidst the craziness of the last two weeks, I forgot about the whole thing.
My husband was given leave awhile back, so I took time off, as well, more than a month ago.
Then, we suffered a death in the family, and my best friend and college roommate Blair came to visit.
Therefore, the hubs wasn't granted his time off anymore, and we couldn't afford to road-trip and visit his family this week - our original intention.
In essence, because my husband had to take emergency leave, so we could attend his grandmother's funeral, his vacation no longer existed.
But mine did.
Or, rather, mine does. It's going on right now, in fact.
Oops.
I've got a wide-open week ahead of me, and I totally forgot about it.
I have intentions to rest for the next couple of days. I got a sunburn at the beach with Blair on Saturday, and I'm finally feeling the effects of a rather sleepless seven days. I spent yesterday evening with the chills and an intense headache - just enough proof to convince me that some late mornings and long naps are in order.
I'd also like to clean my house and catch up with all of you. I'm scared to admit I haven't read a blog in over a week.
But, after all that is said and done, I'm going to need some entertainment. Fun, cheap, alone-time entertainment.
I've considered throwing a pot-luck lunch for some fellow Navy wives. I've debated finally, finally finishing my wedding scrapbook, since, you know, we've been married almost two years. And I've pondered locking myself in our office and reading my entire stack of books without pause.
But that's where my motivation ends.
So, tell me, what should I do with this semi-unexpected, stay-at-home vacation? How would you all entertain yourself if given a surprise week off?
I'm looking for some serious inspiration here. And, perhaps, a good shove in the right direction.
Also, anyone who would like to yell forcefully at me to "Finish that scrapbook, for the love of Pete, Brittany!" will be very much appreciated.
What can I say? I work better under pressure.
Happy Monday, everyone!
