Sabbatical Year


Just over 4 years ago I enrolled in a program at work that would see me take a year off after 4 years of work. My employer calls it the "Deferred Salary Leave Plan. Other places call it a "four over five" - it's basically a sabbatical year. I was paid 80% of my salary over the four years with 20% being withheld each year and now being paid out to me. Or at least that was the plan... I ended up taking a caregiver leave for most of last year so it won't be quite 80%. But it will be a year. 52 weeks.

When I planned this leave I of course went to Pinterest and started making a list of all the things I wanted to do in my year "off."

My leave started on Saturday, August 11, 2018. I'm going to try to do a weekly update over the next 52 weeks so we can share this year together. I'll be starting my weeks on the Sunday.
