Today: When Thursday equals Friday.

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] You know you’ve been living in a cave your office (with no time to Google around) for too long when your sister mentions something about a potential government shut down and you’re all, Huhhhh? The fact you’re going through three times the normal amount of under-eye concealer is a pretty good tip off, too.  After a few weeks of burning the proverbial candle at both proverbial ends (and looking like a house-trained raccoon), I am pleased to report that today is my Friday.  Even though it’s only Thursday.  That’s right people.  This little lady is taking a vacation day tomorrow.  Can I get a Hallelujah?  Or maybe low five (I don’t have the energy for much more)?

I have a habit of writing out the following day’s To Do list the night before.  It helps keep me focused, so I don’t go off the reservation and eat cheese doodles all day.  I almost just died of excitement when I finished tomorrow’s list. But instead, I stayed alive.  Aren’t you lucky.

1.  Burn the candle at only one end.

2.  Pack some snacks.

3. Float around (in the tub).  And yes, I am wearing a bathing suit.  No nudies On Tap, people.

4.  Nap.

5.  Get outside.

6. Enjoy a little Turtle Time.

7. Be thankful for what (and who!) I have.

8. And focus on what’s really important.

I’m off to the Cape for the day with my mom and aunts.  Toodles, my friends!

Also On Tap for Today:

• I’m officially the last person on Earth to be reading (and loving) this book
• Class at the Pawsitive Dog
• Enjoying a new Whole Foods treat: kiwiberries!

What’s on the agenda for your next day off?
