I’m not working, though I have checked some email and kept an eye on a few things while I’m in Pensacola, FL. I have made an effort, however, to not work, and not respond to emails that weren’t very time critical. Mostly I’m just trying to prune down things that might make my return hard.

SQL Saturday #77 was Saturday, and while Friday night and most of Saturday were consumed by the event (which was great, I’ll write tomorrow), most of Friday, Sunday, and today are vacation for me. I brought my daughter with me, and it’s been a fun trip for us. We’ve gotten to enjoy some sights together, but mostly just hang around, getting some great quality time.

I don’t usually take all my vacation, despite the ski days that I sneak in here and there, and that has started to bother me the last couple years. The nature of my job makes it hard to get away, but I’m making an effort this year, with a couple short vacations done and a couple more planned.

We’ll see how I do this year, but for now I’m enjoying the break.
