When I see 5 open days on my calendar – white space is lovely – I feel an immediate urge to drive to a remote cabin or beachfront cottage, armed with nothing but my laptop, an excellent pinot grigio, good cheese and apples. It’s LOGAN TIME!
But…I also want to enjoy all that comes with family holidays: cooking with my son, Dave, savoring the smell of the turkey roasting in the oven, snuggling with my husband on the couch, family sprawled in chairs and on the floor after stuffing ourselves-watching Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Sooooo….what to do? Thoroughly enjoy Thursday, then carve out the next one or two for writing, and spend at least one full day on a play date with my husband.
Oh…and laundry…must fit laundry in there somewhere…
