The past month my boss and I have been trying to use up the rest of our vacation before we lose it at the end of the year. The problem is that Uncle Sherwin just laid off our third key so we have to work open to close while the other one is on vacation and it’s not too much fun. So I realized a week or so ago that I actually had four days off from Sunday through Wednesday so I decided it was time to go somewhere again.
I checked the flights and I could make it pretty easily to Long Beach to see my brother but then I realized I also had enough time to go hang out with my sister and her family in Maine. The flights were wide open so I mentioned the trip to Alexis and she asked if Karleigh was coming so I asked my dad for a buddy pass and he said no problem. It was kinda last second for Karleigh so we weren’t sure if it would work out for her to get time off so that was left in the air for a bit.
On Saturday Karleigh picked me up from work and on the way home as I figured out what time I needed to leave to catch the red-eye to JFK she got a text from her boss saying she could have the time off. So we quickly figured out a schedule, packed some bags, and went to the airport.
