Reality is Overrated
When you finally head out on vacation, your body goes into relax mode.Not just relax mode, but tired, exhausted, pass out after lunch.
That's even without cocktails!
I noticed that the first 2 days of vacation, I yawned a ton.
I wanted to nap.
After my morning coffee.
I guess after the everyday go-go-go, I finally felt no reason to rush.
Vacation was just what we had all hoped for, nothing important to do.
Just have fun.
Play.
Look forward to the next fun activity.
I didn't have to blog.
Didn't have to check my email.
Didn't have to pay bills, do laundry, or shower.
We swam, golfed, hiked, bowled, mountain biked, gambled, lounged at the lake, ate, ate, drank, and ate.
It was glorious.
I miss it.
We'd all like to vacation for 9 days every few months.
Like a prescription.
Take 1 vacation, and don't call me in the morning, because I'm feeling GOOD!
Ahh.
Dreams.
Fantasies.
Reminds me, I better go buy a lottery ticket.

I love that after breakfast nap on vacation...so much that I usually have another after lunch!

Your lottery ticket comment made me giggle. Hubby thinks we may hit it big eventually. I don't think so. Vacations are so important to our sanity. Unfortunately affording them is difficult.

i didn't take a break when we went on vacation for a few days. i was blogging and on the internet as much as i am when i am home. it's sad. i think i'm addicted. i would stay up late at night to do my "work" so i could have the rest of the day free to swim, play and clean. have a wonderful day and take care.
