If you could have anything....

what would it be? I find myself thinking more and more often that I want more time. More time to work on self-indulgent projects, more time to spend at home, more time to be creative with my son, more time to take long walks in beautiful weather with Hubby, the Little Guy and the pups.

And, I would like to spend less time at work. Which, fortunately for me, that wish is going to come true! Sort of... We are having a schedule change in two weeks. I will still have to work five days each week, and still get to work by seven a.m., however I will get off work each day at three-thirty in the afternoon! I can't wait! I'm so excited about this. I'm confident that I will then have more time for my self-indulgent projects, more time to spend at home, more time to be creative with my son, and for long walks with my family. Just in time for Spring!

For the longest time I've thought that my old work schedule of four nine hour days (Mondays thru Thursdays) and one four hour day (on Fridays) was so special. Then we started realizing just how unproductive Fridays had become at work. So, the need for an eight hour day, five days per work week evolved. Shorter work days for me... easier commutes home each afternoon since I won't be hitting rush hour... I love it. I just have a huge feeling that my afternoons are going to feel sooooo good. The change will become effective on March 16th. Did I mention I can't wait????

What are you wishing for?
And, better yet... do you think that wish will come true?
