Decisions, decisions

[carynb]

I booked tomorrow off work, a few weeks ago, since we're going to Ottawa this weekend, and the original plan was to leave on Friday.

We're not doing that anymore - we're leaving early Saturday morning instead - and now I'm trying to decide whether or not I should work tomorrow anyway.

Reasons to work: I took an unscheduled sick day off already this week. Plus, I don't actually need the day off anymore.

Reasons not to work: I have 6 weeks of accumulated vacation time; why not take a day? I could get my weekend chores (like, y'know, laundry) done tomorrow and not have to worry about getting everything done when we get back on Sunday. And it's not like I'm working on an urgent deadline at the moment - I'm just working on accumulated "stuff".

I'll have to decide before I go home tonight, anyway - I really should either remind my boss that I won't be in tomorrow, or let him know that I've changed my mind at some point today.

I guess I can comment over here...

Are you totally booked this weekend? Or could we squeeze in a visit? Maybe brunch on Sunday?

Sorry, it's gonna be a real short visit - I'm heading down for my nephew's birthday party on Saturday. My Mom's also going to be in town, so my time is really tied up with family stuff. Maybe next time?

Sure, maybe next time. Have a good visit.

Take the vacation. Rest, relax, do chores if necessary. Decompress.

Six weeks would be lovely.

Possibly I may be projecting here.

Heh. Y'think?

I've pretty much decided that I am taking the day, yes. I'll rest and relax - why not?
