A Day Off

I have taken PTO on my birthday for maybe the past 5 years. 

But then I got laid off from a job and it destroyed a little piece of me inside.

So at my new job, I take very few PTO days just for the heck of it. 

I've used them for doctor's appointments, for the entire family. 

And that's about it.

I mean. Working from home does make it 100% easier.

And my flexible job makes it even better. 

But to take a day to do...nothing?

It's been a while. 

So instead of taking my birthday off - it fell on a Wednesday and that would not be convenient for my team at work - I took the following Friday (Jan. 29) off. 

It was a rest day for me, so I knew I could be super lazy...

Anyway, took the girls to school.

And then I laid on the couch for like the next 4.5 hours.

I finished watching the 3rd Season of Cobra Kai.

I had seen on my FB group AOS that they had these rugs for sale. For a very reasonable price. $80! I knew we needed a rug for our bedroom, but c'mon, we all know they are hundreds of dollars for a nice one. So I grabbed it, knowing it would be a little too small. And I love how it turned out! 

I splurged and picked up a coffee for myself since I knew I'd be sitting in school pick up line for a bit. I got there early, which is fine. I don't mind sitting in the car listening to music and sippin' my drink. 

They day does go by quickly, since I was sitting in the school pick up line around 2:30. 

But, those few hours? 

They are great for some quiet me time.
