As much as I like a day off work, there comes a point in a three day weekend when enough is enough.
I think my SO wanted me back to work as much as I did!
There is something about a legal holiday that is different than a scheduled vacation day (or days). Maybe it is in the planning. For legal holidays (of which we don't actually get ALL of them off), they seem to sneak up on me. So when I take them off, I am not mentally prepared. But when I have a planned day or two off, I know what we will be doing and when.
These legal holidays just seem to be so last-minute. So there is never a plan on what to do. It gets hectic trying to plan things, or not plan things, or who to see or where to go. Personally, I would be fine staying home. But what most folks like about a day off is that you can get away. Not me, but I tend to go with the flow.
Anyway, I think we just had about TOO MUCH TOGETHERNESS! Ever had that feeling? I dunno, maybe it is me. I would for sure prefer to not spend time alone, but there comes a point when you have just had enough of each other, you know? Things start out fine then eventually breaks down into nit picking and ends up in a fight. I don't know why that is, but you can almost set your watch by it.
Does this happen to you? If so then maybe you understand. While I don't actually relish the idea of going to work, sometimes it is just what you need to keep your sanity.







I do understand.
I like my fredom, I am married- happily.
Our scheduels are very differeny and we like that, because we are so independent.
It helps us enjoy our time together that muchmore. If we go on a trip it can get stressfull.
I took the Thursday and Friday off, so I could have 5 days in a row...the longest vacation I've had all summer since I'm in a new job. I figured there could be some lovely togetherness with my SO and my son and of course ME. I love them dearly, I do, and the first hmmmm days rocked. The 4th day was questionable. Yesterday found me irritable. I'm very glad to be back in the office today :)
I agree with you completely! Having the extra day off just managed to mess with my head! Now I can't figure out what day it is. It'll take me weeks to get back on track... (Okay, so maybe I'm exaggerating a tiny bit!)
