Like every other working Canadian right now, I’m not looking forward to returning to work tomorrow. Gone are the mornings of sleeping in, nursing a hangover and thinking “Hmm…what shall I do today?” (although I’m sure that’s what retirement is like!)
At least Vero and I were smart enough to make the most out of a nice zero degree day and went cross country skiing. It’s always a struggle to get me out and doing some form of physical activity but when I get there, I’m quite happy. It was a perfect day out in the woods (other than the constant non-existence of sunshine without cloud cover around Ottawa) with Vero and it makes me realize that cross country skiing is a fabulous way to spend an hour on a Sunday.
We also put away the Christmas decorations which always is the worst part of my year. Why can’t we just leave the lights up all year long?
So what does next week hold for me? I’m sure that it will take a day or two to get settled back into the routine of work. There are probably tons of Christmas decorations to take down if no one has done so already. Plus it’s time to gear up for the upcoming baby! Vero has started her lists so now it’s time to keep an eye open on Kijiji for some good deals to be had.
