Exhaustion

The problem with going away on a two week vacation is that, inevitably, you end up with twice as much work as usual the week before you leave. I had all sorts of ambitious plans of being packed for my trip by tonight, but instead I've been working late. It is partly my fault, I knew that two of the things I was choosing as my annual work goals would come due around the same time. I've been coming home exhausted and pretty much collapsing, unable to do anything productive, like go to my attic and locate my sleeping bag and dry bag.

On the upside, just four more days until I leave for New Zealand! I don't think I'll have any trouble sleeping through a sizable chunk of my 14 hour flight on Sunday. :) I might be run ragged right now, but it's only making me even more excited about my vacation. I can hardly wait to relax in a kayak listening to the wind and birds on Marlborough Sounds.
