That’s right. Today is one of those rare double days off. I get the day off because it’s my scheduled day off plus it’s a holiday so I get the day off.
At Blue Cross [my former employer of 7 years from 95-02] I would get an extra day off when this happened, but in ministry this usually means I don’t take a day off at all. Funny math, eh?
Today, I am having breakfast with a deacon. (I enjoy that greatly) Then I am off to the LF room to work more on the pool table. Hopefully by the end of the afternoon I’ll have it all sanded and primed. Then later tonight we are going to a friends house from the church for a big New Year’s bash. Something tells me there won’t be any booze at this? I consider it half work and half fun since there will be tons of students there and their parents. This will hardly be a rest.
I’m not mad about the no day off deal. In all reality it is my fault. I made the choice to schedule these things and I am happy with it. If I really wanted the day off I could take it.
This is the joy of having a super-flexible work schedule since I can work as much or as little as I like.
