How to get through the weeks ahead

If you have read my post from yesterday, you know that I am a bit (a lot) down about getting back to work, especially since there are nothing remotely exciting that will happen in the forseeable future. I am bracing myself for some boring and bluesy weeks ahead. I asked my wife how to get through them and she came up with a brilliant advice, so good in fact that I think it deserves to be a great unknown line: "Let's plan our next holidays." So simple, yet so true and efficient. They will not happen soon, obviously, but just preparing them, seeing when we can take them, where we could go, what we could do, it will keep our mind off the most tedious aspects of everyday life and give us something we look forward to.
