Hey Jessica, how's it going? It's going great I had a lovely weekend how

about you yeah well I worked a lot this weekend preparing our business English

course but I mean we are recording this way in advance so we're recording this in early July and it's already the end of August.

So I'd rather think about where I'll be at this time.

I mean, I'll be coming off of a vacation right to the Pacific Northwest and feeling good and you'll be on vacation around this time I think right?

Yeah I'm taking my August vacation like the Europeans do.

We're gonna take a couple weeks, go on a really long camping trip.

Yes, so excited. And what's great is I actually have time to prepare before the camping trip.

you're gonna take a vacation?
