In a couple of days I will be on vacation. This summer has been so jacked up I haven’t really been able to take a vacation before now — doing too much for everyone else. I went up north once for a week-end. Big Deal! I need at least a week up north and would love to take 2. Not likely to happen for me any time soon. But I have this one week I asked for off. My husband and I (and possibly stepson) are going up north to the Upper Peninsula and to the Straits of Mackinac to do the Mackinac Bridge Walk on Labor Day. I wish I could spend the whole week up there but my husband can’t really take the time off work right now. Grrr. Why have the gods conspired against me?
I suppose I need the time to clean and organize my house and get ready for school. Fun…not. I am planning a few trips for September and the fall, lets hope they work out. I also want to go on another cruise and I am seriously contemplating booking one for winter…I’ll have to see if my husband and I can pull it off. We really need to get away.
Oh well, at least I have the Bridge Walk to look forward to.
Supposedly we have a wedding in Florida to go to in October — I am not too fond of Florida and I am not looking forward to it…it is just going to get in the way of my plans! Grrr. It would probably be smart to book a cruise for that time since we will already be down by all the major cruise ports but I don’t want to take time away from school.
I might just chuck all these plans and stay closer to home this year — save my money for the next year. It would certainly be easier but not quite as fun or adventurous.
