A "Workation"

First we had vacations...

Then I learned about something called a staycation...

And now I'm going on a month-long workation!

Where, you ask?  Well, where else? 

South Carolina!

That's right... the kids and I are coming to South Carolina from the middle of February to the middle of March.  Ben will stay here with the dog and work.  He'll fly out for a long weekend in the middle so we don't miss each other so terribly bad.  And what will I be doing out in South Carolina?  Working, of course!  The Woods (my former employers) have made me an offer to come back and help them meet some March deadlines.  The kids will be in "daycare" with family, mostly, and since Olivia is already in homeschool it won't be a huge deal.  Kelsey will continue her Kindergarten education on the road, and re-enroll in school once we get back.  She'll miss about 4 weeks of school and we'll get back during Spring Break.

This is a great blessing for our family and will help us meet some financial goals for this year.  As an added bonus, we get to spend some time with our family and friends in the Palmetto State.  And it helps that I really loved my job.  So... workation, here we come!
