Burnout....

Even a "mini-vacation" can ease the burn. Taking a break from your regular routine, get together with an old friend, go on a short hike someplace or toss a ball with some kids for a little while.
In almost 20 years with the Post offcie I never took an actual vacation. If solid weeks were taken off it was because of things needing to be done. Towards the end of my sentence I did take alot of 4 day weekends and they made me really think long and hard about the place.
