Back at Work

Day two of being back at work after 15 days off on holiday. I am actually quite enjoying it, I think after 15 days of holidays it is nice to be productive again in a work kind of way. There have been some pleasant tasks to do and as for the hard ones well knowing I am about to have another 10 days off for the holiday of fun means nothing seems that overwhelming at all. I feel completely and totally indulgent.

The last week of my holidays was as good as the first I will continue from where I was up to:
Tuesday: Had a day at home alone as planned, well apart from Leila. I had a swim, did some pilates and some cleaning but mainly just sat around reading.
Wednesday: New Years Eve we hung around in teh morning and Gem and I went for a run. Then we headed over to Cremorne Point. We took the Ferry which was nice. Then we had to wait like 9 hours for the fireworks. It was so hot and not a lot of shade so I got a bit sick unfortunately and spent the night trying to sleep but the fireworks were pretty and Jo and Victor got engaged so I felt like it was worth being there.
Thursday: New Years Day. Hung around home again with Gem, Leila, Daniel, Dean, Ryan and Martin. We drunk lots of tea, had a BBQ and then saw Frost/Nixon which was a really very good movie.
Friday: Leila, Gem and I went to the Blue mountains. It was a bit of a frustrating day waiting for public transport but we evertually got to the three sisters and did a bit of a walk around there. We stayed at our friend’s Michael and Alexis house who are great and have a great house. He is an adult educator too and I really enjoy chatting with him about it. It was a freezing night believe it or not. We had the heater going and everything.
Saturday: Again in the Blue Mountains where we did another walk. It was better, less touristy and along a river with waterfalls. Although me reading the map is always a disaster so there was a bit of a detour. We had a few more public transport issues (when trains only tun every hour it is not good) but all in all a pleasant day.
Sunday: Went out to see another minister, not our man for those who are intersted. In the afternoon hung out with Hayley and Gem at the pool and then went to Newtown for coffee with Helen in a book shop. Very cool.
Monday: Last day before returning to work so just did some at home stuff Nice.

So a great holiday and lots and lots of people around which has been fun although made me realise that even extovert me has some limits.
