Maximizing the remaining 1-day vacation leave credit during this pandemic period

It is such a privilege to have vacation leaves to be used throughout the year. In my current employer, we have given 16-day break from work that we can used starting November last year and until October 31st of this year. And today marks my 16th vacation leave, the remaining for this year. What made this day special was I spent this day to give quality time for my family. 

What I did: 

1. Watched the newly released episode of “You” Season 3 of Netflix.

2. Got the time to bring the photocopying machine for repair. 

3. Brought my mom to the mall. It has been a year since she was able to see the supermarket, outlets and shop. It was just this September when she completed her vaccine and I remember teasing her that she can’t go to anywhere if not vaccinated. Finally, she agreed to go to the vaccination center after nth time of convincing her. What made her happy? A box of sewing kit at Mini-So. We actually bought 2 for she knows she might misplace it. :D

4. Treat the fam in an open food hub. We ordered tuna pasta, clubhouse, caffe latte, black coffee “kape barako”, sundae, shawarma, siopao and lumpia.

5. Did some work between 6pm to 10pm. This is an OTY. But that’s okay, sometimes you will feel that you are in a work mode even if you’re on leave. 

Note to self: 

1. Maximize your time. 

2. Be grateful. 

3. Love your mom. 

4. Happiness is when you see your loved ones happy. 

5. Thankful for having a supportive husband. 

6. Enjoy and appreciate life thru smallest things. 

7. Say hi to friends, reconnect.
