Some people save up their vacation time and end up having to use some at the end of the year so they won't loose it. That is one problem that I have never encountered in my relatively short life. When I see those poor devils rushing around at the end of the year, worried they might loose some vacation, I think, "there, but for the grace of God, go I". I'm not sure how to explain my talent. That is to say, I don't remember anyone "teaching" me how to use vacation time. It would seem it was one of those God given gifts that is just part of my personality. Please don't think that I am boasting. I understand that I could have easily been one of those other people who just can't think of a good reason to take off work. For me the reasons just seem to flow like a broken water main. I can't hardly think of a reason to not take a vacation day. Weird, huh? Another amazing part of this whole thing is the fact that my cow-orkers seem to enjoy seeing me take days off too. Talk about a win - win. Kind of like a vacation for them and me too. I don't know, it's just rather amazing sometimes when I step back and see all the wonderful ways God has blessed me. Maybe I'll take off tomorrow and contemplate all that I have been given. I'll be right back, gotta take a quick look at my last check stub.
