Demo basement floors, walls, and ceiling, remove mold and paint with mold resistant paint.
Replace 40 gallon water heater.
Replace cracked thermostat housing in truck.
Demo and replace cracked concrete chimney above roof with brick.
Line chimney with metal flue.
Replace flat tire in swamp with two dogs supervising.
Demo and replace all plumbing and drains from basement floor up.
Install basement de-humidifier.
Demo asphalt driveway, brick stairs and concrete walk and replace with brick stairs and 1100 sf stamped concrete with brick finish.

I can't wait to get back to work...but I'm only half way through the list.

I guess I'm going to have to look up the word "vacation". Does it mean "doing something other than one's regularly scheduled work" (instead of "not working")?

Did your girlfriend temporarily banish you from the master bedroom forcing you to take up residence in the basement? :p

Nice work. How long? I've got a month off and plenty of work to do on the house. I think I will be taking it easier than you though.
