Long Weekend

I’m feeling extremely grateful for this long weekend.

Sure it’s not particularly original to be thankful for Thanksgiving weekend, but I’m rolling with it all the same.

I really need this little break, an extra day out of my usual routine.

And I guess really what I’m getting is an extra day from other peoples routines. The fact that things are closed on Monday and that other people are taking a break means that I will really have the freedom to shape my own schedule on that day.

I’ve been having a lot of trouble with time lately. My schedules don’t seem to be staying in place, things are taking longer than they usually do, and I’m finding that people are not getting back to me with information and then when they do they’re in a big hurry.

And since I struggle with prioritization, it really adds to my own level of stress. I can’t tell how seriously to take them, how much their priorities should become mine.

And that’s damn tiring.

I’m glad to be getting a break from it.
