Dear Employer... I's in Travel Now!

Dear Old Employer,

It’s Christmas today.  Guess what I did…

You would never know because I was not there…I's in travel now! (In the words of Sug- Color Purple)

I gave myself the day off to spend actual QUALITY time with my family.  We talked about deals and sales we no THEY were going to take advantage of after the holidays,  where we were traveling for the next year,  what vacations were on our bucket list, who had to work tomorrow, and who DID NOT!  Guess which time I held my hand up.

I actually was able to get something done to my travel blog in between turkey servings and the book I threw all over my bedroom for the last couple months.. . I realized that I actually was reading the book and I was at a good part, the part where I made the decision to depart from you.

If I was paying attention, I probably got paid today.  Who’s counting?

I slept in late this Thanksgiving, and this Christmas, well you know the kids right?  Maybe not.  My new industry (travel remember) does not really call for me to be available during the holidays… I am not essential but I am important.  As a matter of fact, I actually look forward to working... when I'm ready.

I also did not have to worry about if I could afford my rent after those much needed Black Friday Shopping Sprees for the ones I love.  Sorry I didn’t get you anything for the holidays...  

You understand.

Thankfully yours

Shavonne.
