Have you ever taken a vacation

That really wasn’t a vacation.

I just did.

Don’t get me wrong it was

Really fun and I wouldn’t

Change anything.

By the end I was just tired.

I went to 4 concerts in 7 days.

3 of them at the same place.

This place was 70 miles

Each way and took anywhere

Between an hour and a half to

Two hours to get there.

The first 3 were Sunday,

Tuesday, and Thursday.

I had a day in between.

The fourth was in a different state.

I left Saturday and came

Back Monday.

The concert was on Sunday

The place I stayed was 6

Hours away.

I had one day to rest

Before i went back to work.

I worked 2 ten hour days

In a row.

I was sore.

I feel better now,

I think my body just

Got unused to standing

For 10 or more hours a day.

Just be careful if you are off

For a week or more.

Try to ease back into your job.
