Day 132 of Thanksgiving.....

132/233

Today I am so very Thankful for Vacations!  Hubby is on vacation this coming week and for us that means doing stuff around the house and maybe a day trip along with a dinner out.  This has become the norm for us as week long vacations away from home are now more of a luxury than the routine they used to be.  We have had one of those in the past 10 years and it was wonderful but not in the picture right now.  However - we embrace the notion of Vacation anyway - we eat a little later, stay up a little longer, linger outside more and think V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N thoughts.  Take naps with abandon and watch movies most every night.  These are not things that hubby can do when he is working - he works very hard so when he is off we all get in the notion of relaxation!  Cooking fun dishes and enjoying them - you just knew food had to figure in here - maybe having a dessert.  Yum!!  The goal for me is always to do some things that will make life a little easier and pleasurable after he returns to work such as cleaning out a closet, organizing some drawers, etc.  Stuff dreams are may of - not.....but for me pleasurable just the same.  We will frequently say during the week - don't worry about that cause after all we are on VACATION!!!!  ;o)......we're gonna have some fun!
