The Weekend

The weekend is almost over and I need at least two more days of weekend. I am NOT ready to start the work week. And to top it off tomorrow night is the chamber dinner so it’s not even just a normal work day.

I needed some time away from the world this weekend and have largely had it. Greg has been around a lot, and we’ve been out to eat and such, but otherwise, I’ve been holed up in my house. I haven’t even answered my phone this weekend. I needed time away from everyone.

It seems whenever my phone rings it’s someone wanting something from me – my brain, my creativity, my energy, my time – something. Other than a few close friends and my family, it’s rare someone calls just for my company – that would be a pleasant change of pace. I guess that’s why I haven’t answered the phone all weekend. I haven’t even looked at it when it has rung. I just wanted to ignore it so I did. I figure I’m allowed every once inawhile. I can’t help but notice that no one has been so concerned about me that they’ve shown up on my doorstep – a little something to remember for the future.

It’s four minutes into the new work week and I already feel behind – that’s a great way to start a Monday.
