Yes it does.
I just spent the weekend in Nashville and had a great time with the wife, parents, and some extended family. It was pretty relaxing, I feel like I ate a herd of animals, and I got a decent amount of sleep.
Now it is back to reality.
It's Sunday night and I have to prepare for tomorrow. I've had my coffee, I've got some Hammock waves rising from my laptop speakers, and I'm Powerpointing with a vengeance (except for the moment I'm taking here).
So, the question is, was having a day and a half of vacation with being able to do little to no work worth it? Yes it was.
I realized that almost having a mental collapse last week with my midpoint review looming in the near future and having classes to start from scratch again, that I need a day or two of reprieve every so often. Even though I am a bit stressed about getting things done, I feel quite good about my weekend of recuperation.
I think I will be taking another break/quick catch-up in two weeks when my friend visits from Texas. But I haven't seen him in like 2 years, so again, totally worth any last minute frenzy for the day or so of great fun and conversation.
Feel the same or different? Let me know? I love to know what other people are thinking.
I also came across this idea for my next post finalizer.

Rest is a good thing, but boredom is its brother.

After traveling to Chicago over the past weekend and seeing the city with no thoughts of school or homework I have to agree that the relaxing time spent during a educationally unhindered weekend is completely worth the last minute intellectual dash that awaits on Sunday night.
