It is moving time again at work. Time for all of us to pack up our junk and put it in another cube. I have pretty much the most junk out of anyone else and it will most likely take half a dozen boxes for me to pack everything up. I’m not looking forward to doing that.
It is appropriate that I have to move stuff right after vacation. Our mini vacation was so awesome and I was so relaxed (for me) that getting slapped with real world garbage again just makes me realize and appreciate that time I had.

Our GPS tried to send us through the mountains and on road not maintained for Winter travel. We did drive it for a bit until we came to a camping area and there was nowhere else to go. So we backtracked but the views were spectacular. We arrived at Santa’s Village a little after they opened and the place was pretty packed. So many people had the same idea.
