Different Weekend Vibes

For the first time in ten years, I have a summer work schedule! Usually I just keep to the same schedule year-round, but this year I decided to switch things up. The good news is, I won’t be working on Tuesdays, which means I have Tuesday and Wednesday off! The bad news is…. to make up for it, I’ve added Saturday hours. Instead of working 9-1 on Saturdays, I now work 9-5. I mean- that’s kind of bad news but not really tragic. I’ll miss my Saturday afternoon nap and trip to the gym, but I don’t mind the thought of pushing through a long work day. I’ll come home, take a short nap and then obviously have my reward (Chipotle and Coke Zero). Then I’ll stay up late reading. Who else is reading/has read this book??? I’m really enjoying it! To be honest, the premise sounded kind of dumb. Let’s see, a phony-baloney trad-wife influencer somehow goes back in time to the 1800s, where she’s forced to live a REAL pioneer existence, no doubt learning valuable lessons and becoming a more authentic person. No, there’s so much more to it! I’m only about 100 pages in, so I can’t really speak about the plot (but so far, so good). I love the writing style. At first the main character was someone you “love to hate,” but as we get further in, her snarky internal monologue is actually making me kind of like her. Anyway… more about this book when I finish it (which could be tomorrow night). Sunday! There’s not much on the agenda. I’ll sleep in, read blogs, do some grocery shopping, and go to the gym where I will FINISH Caroline Girvan’s Iron Series! Woohoo! My daughter is done with school- actually done, not just in her mind- and my husband is done except for a few days of professional development. And for the first time ever I have a summer work schedule! Let the summer weekend begin! Do you have plans for the weekend?  Who has read Yesteryear? – Every time I write that title, I accidentally write “Yesterday” and have to go back and change it. Top photo by bady abbas on Unsplash
