This break has been both overwhelming and productive, a surprising pair. I think I've worked a hundred hours, at least it seems, over break. eight of those hours being on christmas day. I finally realized what it's like to be an adult, working eight hour days, running around trying to get everything done. where does the time go?
Tomorrow, I work in the morning, eight to noon, and then the fam and I are going up north until Saturday. I'm not really excited to go up north but I am excited to have a few days off of working. Oh I just can't wait until the pay check.
So Christmas was yesterday and I wish the day had just a few more hours. After working 8-12 and 3-7, all I wanted to do was sleep but the entire family was over and of course, we had to open presents.
I got my dvd camcorder for christmas, which is pretty freakin sweet. I got a few gift cards, a bunch of doggie books, a coach purse from the g-ma, a few movies, some scrubs. It was overall a very nice day.
Although this break has been super busy, I still feel like I've had time to think and attempt to figure things out. I realized that the only ones you can totally rely on in life is family, pets included. To have expectations of others is not productive and usually results in disappointment. All humans have expectations because all humans have needs. I don't believe this is a negative outlook on life... I think it's realisitic and if we could all learn to live this way, life would be much simpler. I guess we just have to trust in ourselves that the right people will come along and the needs and expectations of each other fit together. Until that point, I'll always have my dogs, which are more than enough.
It's 10:04... and I'm going to bed.
