Does anyone else feel this way after having a nice relaxing fun vaction with your families. I work almost everyday. I usually only get one to maybe three days off a month. Grant it my working days range from only working 2-6 hours in a day. So I don't get too tired or burnt out with my schedule.

But this past week we went on a vacation and I was off for 4 days straight. I hadn't had that for about 7 months or so. It was wonderful and my kids and my hubby and I had a lot of fun. We came back yesterday and I went back to work today. I had two different shifts and on both of them I felt out of it. a little hard focusing and getting back into sync.

Yep. I dread returning to work after having enjoyed a stretch of days off. The more days off I've had, the more I dread going back to the job. Work takes up too much of my personal time, IMHO.
