I'm Remarkably Calm...

I hardly believe I am going to say this, but after fretting over work issues that have popped up in the last couple weeks I am happy to say that everything is under control (at the moment) and it looks like it will be smooth sailing while I am on vacation.

Yes, there have been several work related SNAFUs but I have found solutions to them and although it means I will have to "hit the ground running" when I return from vacation I can at least leave for my trip knowing that I am not dumping a bunch of work on my co-workers who aren't familiar with some of the intricacies of the grant work.

So, this has eased my worries and is allowing me to remain calm, cool, and collected in regards to my 3 week absence at work.

And the other reason for my calmness...and there is never an easy way to say this...but since dad passed away last week, I am not fretting that it will happen while I am traveling. Yes, mom had said that if dad passed away while I was on my trip I was not expected to come home immediately, but I know me, and I would have come home. And now this will not be weighing on my mind.

Here's looking forward to calm traveling conditions! :)
