Decisions, decisions!

If you are anything like most people I know “vacation” can be a scary word. It is an impossibility to you especially if you are running your own shop. Or even if you are working for a company, and like me treat it as your own by doing your utmost to help it succeed. After all, if you work hard you’re sure to be up for promotion! (or so they say ;) ) You believe that the business or department would crumble and fall if you dare even think of taking a little time out.

I understand that oh too well. And I realise that a vacation doesn’t necessarily have to be a whole week either. It can be as little as a day or a weekend, and it doesn’t have to be expensive.

And this from the one that hardly has time to see her friends of late let alone spend time with my other half, Joey; and we live together!

Oh, the joys of working in the online industry, lol!

But, don’t mind me, I guess I am just a little hyped from lack of sleep, as I have recently been made a really good offer, or to be more precise, offers by a few companies and have been missing out on some sleep trying to decide between them. They each have unique qualities, each target a different sphere in a similar industry (if you know what I mean) and offer great working environments. All senior positions, as I would accept nothing less ;) . So, I guess I am just a little jealous of not being able to take a holly in the next 6 months…but you never know…

Knysna would have been ideal for a weekend getaway. I was hoping to catch the Knysna Oyster festival which runs from 1 - 10 July. But I don’t think that Joey and I will be able to make it. We usually have to plan our getaways way in advance, and with our busy schedules of late….well, you know how it goes :( But that does not stop you from going! Knysna is one of the most beautiful towns on the South African garden route, and their oysters are renowned!

On a bigger and international scale of holidays, I have been planning this trip to Thailand at the end of the year as a present for my brother who is matriculating this year, and hope to still go. I simply must attend one of those full moon parties ;)
I will keep you posted of course.
