So we lost two clerks over the summer. So we interviewed and filled both positions. One started yesterday, the other will Saturday. They're the late night/weekend hours. Then one of our librarians resigned for a higher paying job in Maryland a week before the semester started. She also worked night/Sunday shifts. So now I'm working nights and training the new night time clerk. Another librarian and I have split the weekends. Furthermore, the semester started and meetings are being scheduled so I have to also come in normal hours. Plus a large accreditation self-study landed on my desk right before the semester started. And I had my yearly review and I...
Yeah.
I've decided I'm taking a me vacation later September. My husband gets away every three months or so for a weekend, often at his friend's camp or to do something or another. And he's been telling me I should for years and while I don't disagree, I really don't have a thing I want to do. In fact, I'm too tired/overworked to want to do a thing.
But I've made the bold new decision to do a mini-getaway for myself where I won't be doing a damn thing except read. I think I'll get a B&B a 30-45 minutes away from home and bring a couple of books and some comf pajamas and read and eat a nice dinner. Maybe get a massage, maybe. That's it.
Cuz I need it.
