   Will you be going on vacation this year?
   
   Will you be going on vacation this year or are you reluctant to spend the money because of the economy and high gas prices?

   Probably not. The past 2 years I've invested in keeping a small efficiency apartment in a lakeside town I love, and I escape there for 2-3 days many weeks. For me the mini-vacations are working better. I actually get a lot of writing done then.

   I doubt I'll be going anywhere, but only because I don't know where I'd go if I did. This year I'm planning on staying at home and relaxing because I feel the need to not do anything that takes energy.

   Vacation? I don't remember what that is, lol! Every year when I write my goals, I add "go on a vacation," but I haven't been able to make it happen due to other priorities. I hope to do something this year, maybe on a small scale. Economy, gas prices, and running a business are definite factors.

      Having your own business is very hard.  You sort of are married to THAT. lol.  I do hope you get some change of scenery even if it is a 4 day weekend!

   Yes I already have my vacation weeks planned until Christmas, but I will be staying in town and relaxing because I never have enough money to leave town and go away (like everyone around me seems to be able to do). But all is well -- I love to relax and sleep in and I get much more writing and exercising done that way and catch up on housecleaning.  It's really nice to get away from the stress and rat race of the office a few times a year!
