Scheduling
The main item on today’s agenda is informing the people who need to know that I’ll be out next week, (because I intend to take off the two days immediately following the transfer.) Theoretically this should not be much of a problem because I am “extra”. Realistically, this makes me look like a slug because it’s the only two days I’m working next week. And it’s New Years.
So while I’m lying around, abstaining from fun things, my boss is likely going to assume I’m partying.
Not only that, but I’m scheduled to go to another branch for one of those days, so I’ll have to try to rearrange THAT schedule as well.
Annoying, but not the end of the world, or anything. More annoying is that I’ll likely have to do all this from another branch via email or phone, since I suspect I’m going to get all the way out to work only to be shipped off, somewhere else.
But then I have many days off. And a retrieval to obsess about. And a few parties to attend. And cookies to bake. And one more scarf to block (and then I promise I’ll post pictures!) And gifts to finish wrapping. And Christmas cards to send. And a pie to bake. And all sorts of new baby knitting projects to plan. And socks to knit. And donor letters to deliver. And husbands to love on. And Broadway shows to go to (Billy Elliott on Monday with all three of the stepdaughters. Wish me luck!) and all in all? I think the time will pass quickly between now and Tuesday.
Sounds lovely!
I think you are going to have the best holiday ever.
You sound so, so good, and it warms my heart. Wishing you SO MUCH LUCK!!!!! This is IT! I can feel it : )

This sounds so wonderful! And Mo, you summed up my thoughts exactly.
The scheduling sounds like a pain, but otherwise what a great sounding week. I hope you have lots of fun out and about and having fun. And I really hope the transfer goes wonderfully.
woo hoo for transfer!!!
Yes, a 2ww over the holidays is really quite perfect, isn’t it? You’re not working but you’re still busy and still able to get rest when you need it and eat well…Wishing you all the best for your transfer and hope you enjoy all the relaxation and fun!
Love,
Maddy
You could tell your boss that you have a “medical procedure”, which you do. He should understand that.
Just catching up – woo hoo!!! I am so freaking excited for you. I hope the time does pass quickly – I will be sending so much hope and good energy your way!
