I will get paid for those days I am off thank goodness. They normally do not allow employees to go into the negative in the case of PTO days (unless it's a holiday and they are a newer hire) but they are this time as they didn't give us but a week's notice that these days off would be required. We have been cutting back on the gifts for the past few years and while the kids aren't thrilled by it they understand the reason behind it.

It's been a busy weekend but I have managed to fit in shorter workouts. I am currently re-doing my dining room so I have been helping my DH scrape and remove wallpaper. Talk about a great upper body workout! I am also helping my youngest create a 3-D mountain side landscape for an English project that is due Wednesday (why do teachers love to assign projects like this before a holiday? This is the third one this month!).

Friday I did Walk Away the Pounds 3 Really Fast Miles. Yesterday I did Sara Ivanhoe's Fat Burning Yoga as my body was really cramped and aching from all of the wall paper work, not to mention cleaning the mess from the floor. Today I plan a strength workout before getting the dining room ready for paint and working with Tony on his mountain. I am so looking forward to having a four day weekend next week! I was going to have to work on Friday (hospitals are always open) but due to the economy, it was decided to make employees in the non-clinical departments take the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's off to ensure everyone takes at least 40 hours of PTO (paid time off) by the end of the year. I am all over that one! I even purchased back 40 hours of PTO this year for the first time so that I will have money for Christmas. I am doing NO charging.
