I sympathize with Josie over her seasonal workload. The floral business, by nature, is busiest around the holidays which takes so much time away from the enjoyment of other activities. Of course, she is doing the work she enjoys, but there is a lot that is missed by her work schedule. She will work 7 out of the 8 days leading up to Christmas with only having this Sunday off. Someday, not too far off (we hope) she will be retiring from the business, or working a very limited schedule. The conversations we have about those options seem to point to about one more year. Sooner - if our ship comes in.
It looks like she will have a fairly light schedule the week between Christmas and New Year. She is now scheduled to work on New Year's Eve in addition to one more day during that week. It would be nice if we can get some "away" time scheduled sometime early in the year.
There is so much remaining to do around this house that it will be difficult to justify any away time. The garage is number one on our list of to-do activities and we desperately need to make room for at least one of our vehicles. Any talk of going to Jackson for the summer requires that we make room for our car while we are gone. We have just under 5 months to make all that happen...
