I may have a awesome trip lined up

My fingers are totally crossed. I won’t know until the middle of next week but I’m super excited about it. It’s somewhere cool that I’ve never been. The real reason I’m contemplating it is because the price is insanely cheap right now. I have to do some maneuvering to get all of the pieces to fall into place. If that happens, I am so outta here.

This would be my coolest vacation ever so my fingers, toes and everything else is crossed.

It’s time to renew my passport

I don’t have any trips planned anytime soon but you should always have an active passport. One reason is that if a trip did suddenly come up, the last thing I want to do is have to kick out the money for the passport. I’m sure that I would have other things that I would need to attend to first.

I’ll probably wait until August before I start the process though. That way I can take a colonix in addition to my eating plan so I can drop a few pounds. I don’t think I’ll lose that much in a short time frame but I do want to lose enough so that my face is smaller.

And we all know that the passport is all about the picture.

I may be able to sneak in a weekend trip

I am so excited and I’m not even sure if it will be a reality yet. I haven’t had a “real” vacation in almost 4  years and I’m itching to go somewhere. I want a beach vacation but since I don’t have anyone to go with, I’ll be flying solo.

I’m trying to go somewhere I’ve never been before and I want to capture the entire thing. I’ve already started looking at camcorder reviews to try to find just the right camera. Since I don’t anticipate going back I want to make sure I have my memories.

Now I just have to make sure I can get a good deal so I can make this dream a reality.

I feel a trip to Vegas coming on

I haven’t been on vacation in almost 3 years and I’m just itching to get out of town. I had been in school for several years and wasn’t able to afford a vacation. Now that I’m done with school, I have a small amount of travel money available. If I combine that with some of the other money that I have in my checking account, I may be able to squeeze a weekend trip in.

Even if it’s only for a few days, there’s so much I can do in Vegas. Of course there’s the endless buffetts and shows to check out. I can shop, buy camacho triple maduro cigars, or do what countless other people come to do, gamble. I generally stay off strip so my hotel expense won’t be too great. I also buy package deals from the airlines because it’s generally cheaper than trying to by each individual component.

I just need to sit down and run some numbers to make sure it’s feasible.

I’m trying to swing a trip with my friends

One of my coworkers invites me to go on vacation every year. Each year there is either something going on in my life (like school) or I just don’t have the money. The trip for next year is to the Dominican Republic. That’s one of the places on my wish list so I really want to go.

My coworker has been at the gym like crazy trying to get “D.R. ready” as she calls it. I do work out but the weight is coming of super slow since I haven’t changed my eating habits. If I do decide to go I’m getting lipo 6 hers to drop the pounds quick. That way I can lose a good 10 pounds fast. I’ll still continue to work out but I won’t be dropping any weight.

Now I just have to find a way to come up with the money to go.

Getting back into the groove

No not a good groove either. I’m talking about the groove of getting up and going to work every day. I was on vacation last week and I didn’t have to get up until I was ready to get up. I did wake up almost every morning at my normal time but I had the pleasure of laying back down and sleeping in.

Today is my first day back and I’m already tired. Hopefully this week will fly by and I’ll get to enjoy our upcoming 3 day weekend.

It’s getting close to vacation time

And I am totally out of money! I can’t believe I waited until the last minute to decide that I wanted to go somewhere for vacation. I have no idea what I’m going to do for an entire week. Had I planned ahead, I could have gone on a nice vacation. Renting one of the Outer Banks homes on the beach sounds like a really good idea right now. I may even be able to still get a reservation but I don’t have anyone to go with since it’s so last minute.

I’ll figure out something to do close to home so I won’t just sit around the house. And I may just be able to squeeze a few days at the beach in there after all.

I am in a serious funk

I don’t even know what’s wrong. I do know that I  took off 2 days this week because I needed to de-stress from work. Then on Wednesday, my first day back, I sat at my desk and started crying. It was brief but I couldn’t believe I was crying at work. I’m under serious pressure right now and it’s starting to get to me. Most of it is self-imposed though. I put way more pressure on myself than anyone else ever could.

I don’t know what’s going on but I’ll be glad when this passes. I don’t like this feeling at all.

I’m trying to come up with a plan

And it’s not working at all. I really want to go on vacation for my birthday. None of my “friends” want to go. Either they have kids and can’t go or they’ve already gone. Most of them go to places I don’t want to see or they only stay 3 or 4 days which is not really worth it in my opinion. So I’m trying to plan a solo trip but it is super expensive.

I just don’t have that kind of cash. I don’t know what I’m going to do yet because I really want to go away. I still have at least 2 weeks before I have to make a firm decision. I’ll use that time to try and pull a rabbit out of a hat.

I found a great deal on airfare

Unfortunately I can’t take advantage of it. I just realized that my car inspection is due right now. I’ll clean out my bank account paying for the work that needs to be done on my car. In addition to the inspection and emissions tests that I need, I also need brakes on my car.

I’m sure that will set me back a pretty penny. So a short trip is out of the question right now. Especially since I still need to look into getting something like CLA to help me lose a few pounds. The last thing I need is to try to get on the plane and be told that I have to buy two seats. It sounds like a joke but it’s really happened to people.

That would be a horrible way to start or end a vacation.
