Yihaa! ;D Today started my vacation and it came just in time. I was so exhausted and full of my work. My work will start again 8th of September. ;D Funny thing was when my work day was over today, it started rain immediately. I hope that's not the prevailing weather type for the whole time of my vacation.

Cool man... so that's like a 5 week vacation. Do you get paid for all of that? Don't pull a joe schlared and just sit around and do nothing the whole time... you'll be desperate to go back to work after 2 weeks.
My break isn't until mid February... the best reason to go on a vacation... to care for a new little one ;D Still trying to decide how long to take off. I could take off 4 or 5 weeks full pay. I can use sick time for this type of leave and I have 3 weeks built up just in sick time. Or I can stretch that pay out over more weeks, if we will be able to afford that. Moms AND dads are guaranteed 12 weeks (unpaid) for a newborn....that's a federal law. In fact they just changed that for the dads only a couple years before I took advantage of it. With the twins, I had around 7 weeks worth of time to use and spread it out... I took 11 weeks off.

It sounds like complicated, but good thing is that there is the possibility. Yeah I got paid for that vacation, but the money came for those 5 weeks already at once. But it is difficult to me count how I can manage the vacation time plus two months when I don't get money at all. When you have a "big" amount of money at your bank account, it is somehow hard to spend it wisely so that there still is money on your bank account until the next pay day. Everytime I'll have to count how much money I can spend a day when I have my vacation. There is a big risk of buying too much food and things at the beginning of vacation. ;D All in all this is great time: I don't have to think the work affairs for 5 weeks. Actually I think the 5 week vacation goes quite fast, at least for me. ;D To John: I am not an exotic dancer. If I would be I think the women would run out of that bar and never come back. ;D

Joe, I'm sure you would make an excellent entertainer for the ladies dancing nude for them!

I would but I don't have that much money and can't afford it. Another thing is that my live-in partner doesn't have a vacation now. Instead we drive to Kuopio (a town in Eastern Finland) on Friday and have a little vacation there in the spa. Of course we are going to drive around the East Finland as well. On Sunday we leave from there. So a little trip is waiting for us. :)BTW, I've been to Bulgaria, Rhodos island, Crete and Cyprus from where I travelled to Egypt for spending one day in Cairo. It was a long time ago. It would be great to travel to South Europe if only that would be possible now. I really like a warm weather.
