Vacationing
My vacations plans have been axed. I was planning to go to Texas to see my family while my husband is on a week-long canoe trip with his father and some other guys. But my boss has decided that that is when he’s going to take vacation. Since there is only the two of us in our department, that means I get to stay home by myself while everyone else is away. Then I thought fine, I’ll try to go to Texas some other time, but my parents are moving to Florida in July, so they are very busy with trying to pack and get things ready to move. Since my dad had to take disability while he was in the hospital in Florida, they are behind. With all that they’ve got going on right now, I’d rather not get in the middle of it all, so I will wait till they are settled in Florida before trying to spend a week with them.
I need to find somewhere else to go by myself, hopefully sometime in July or August. My husband can’t take too much time off and he’s getting to take his vacation this year. I’d take my sister with me but she’s in school plus she’s spending most of July in Spain (doing a semester abroad). I don’t have any close girlfriends that I could plan a vacation with, so I’m on my own with no where to go.
I’d like somewhere I can hang out and read books, knit and whatever else I feel like. I’d like some things to see wherever I go, but not a packed trip that would leave no time to breathe. And I can’t go to Europe…the hubby says I can’t go without him. This came up because I mentioned I’ll go to Spain and see my sister. He cried out, “NO! Not with out me.” So I have no idea where to take my vacation this year, but it keep looking more and more like I won’t get one.
Anyone got any suggestions on where I could go to read, knit and relax. Maybe see a few sights. Not too expensive either.
