    Adding Days Off To My Already Posted Schedule

    I feel like I'm changing my schedule every month. I've told the dcps I'm taking off May 22-25th. My dd graduates from college the 22nd. She's bringing her boyfriend home with her and my other dd is possibly bringing her boyfriend home with her too.
    As it stands now, I'd work that Thursday, have a training that night from 6-8, drop my dogs off at a boarding kennel(45 minute drive). The next a.m. I'd probably have to leave town around 7 to get there in time and wouldn't get home til 8 or 9, at least. I may skip the training. But I'd still like to add another day off on each end. Take that Thursday, plus the Tuesday after Memorial Day.
    Do you think this would be enough notice and would be okay, although I've already given them my tentative summer schedule? I did warn them there may be days added.
    Thoughts, please?
    Oh I'm also thinking of adding Thursday July 2nd onto Friday the 3rd(that'll be my 4th of July off).
    I'm sorry, I'm not used to taking a lot of time off and part of me always feels guilty.

    They maybe annoyed but, put yourself and your family first Let them know now so they have notice and for July too. Something like "I've had a few changes to my schedule come up! I will be off such and such dates. Thank you so much for your understanding and I promise to try not to change anything else on you if I can help it!" And leave it at that You don't need to apologize but I don't know, I do when I know its not the original plan I told them. But bottom line, your family comes first!

      I think as long as you let them know ASAP they'll be OK with it. Let them know that the change is really unavoidable, and thank them for their understanding.
