Leap Day

Today is Leap Day, Feb. 29. My niece's "6th" birthday. 

February is almost over.  We have a vacation at the end of next month-hooooorrrraaaaayy! I have been waiting for this vacation for a long, long time. Oh, we have had week long trips here and there-maybe 9 or 10 days, even. But, this one is different. Really different. We will be gone 14 (count 'em!) fourteen days!

Oh, Hawaii, here we come! Sunshine! Warmth! Beaches! Mountains! Big Island, Kona, Hilo. Can't hardly wait.

I am a little nervous, though. I have to take my laptop and be able to work from there. That is kinda scary. We have a job starting up shortly-so we will have to trust our crews to work properly, trust that they won't do anything stupid, trust that they won't steal from us by turning in hours without doing the work, trust that if they have a question or problem they will get in touch with the right people. Trusting employees is NOT my strong suit. I believe most people are honest-however, if they think they can get away with something, they will.

I also have to make sure my work is all caught up before I go. It seems that I have to work so hard before I can relax, and then I have to work so hard when I come back from relaxing. And don't forget-I will have to work while I am gone, too.

One last thing. My daughter will be moving home. I know she didn't want to have to come back to Sequim, and maybe she won't have to stay for long, but I think it is wise of her to do so. After all, we have a wedding to plan!!  I am so excited for her and Les. I am so happy that they are happy, in love, and have their futures ahead of them.

So, that is February.  Come on March!!
