February Where Did You Go?

I can't believe that February is almost over.  If this is an indication of how fast 2011 will go by, I'm in serious trouble.  Especially since I'll be slacking off most of March.  Why?? you may ask.  I have to make sure that my vacation hours are not going to be over 240 hrs by July 1st.  As of the beginning of February my vac hours were 239.  I'll earn about 70 more by July 1st SOOOO I must take time off.  I am taking the 2nd off cause my dad is flying in for a conference in Mesquite and he's coming in a day early to hang with moi.  I am taking March 7-11 off just for the heck of it.  I plan on staying home and working on various projects that need to get done.  Hopefully I'll get myself organized enough to get at least one or two done. (HAHAHAHAHA) Ahem. Sorry gotta catch my breath. . . I will have to go to my second job Monday and Thursday that week but that's not a big deal. 
Did I talk about my other job?  Probably did but if you don't know.  I work 2x a week for 4 hrs in the evening at the CSN Henderson Campus.  It pays pretty good and the work is not hard.  It's usually pretty slow (obviously as I'm typing this while at CSN).
Next CSN's spring break is the week of March 21st so I thought I'd take a couple of days off that week (23rd-25th).  So really I am only taking off 9 days but if you include the weekends that's 17 days so I am not working MORE THAN HALF of the month.  Thus and therefore I am a slacker =). 
But WAIT there's more.  My fabulous friend Miss Leona's parents have offered part of their timeshare to her and she has generously offered to share with a couple of other friends and I.  We will be spending a week in May at Lake Tahoe.  I can't tell you how excited I am about this.  I drove by it (not in visual distance) several years ago when we went to the Redwoods in N. California.  So anyway I'm taking the 18th-29th off in May so I can get ready, go, and recover.  'Cause if I know anything I know that Lea will probably hike me to death while we're there.  It'll be lots of fun.  I'm sure I'll talk more about it.  So anyway there is no worry about me having hours to loose in July.  Heck before I know, it will be July.

Happy trails.
