Enough of Florida, Already

I live in a vacation destination; one of the best in the world. Even so, I feel an intense need to get away more than once throughout the year. I’m usually stopped cold once I start trying to figure out booking hotels and cars and mapping out where to eat and what to see. It makes me tired and I end up just hoofing it over to the closest beach and relaxing on our sugar sand. Or, I simply end up at my dad’s house outside of Washington, DC. You don’t have to make many plans when you are visiting family. I know that my friends who maintain memberships to vacation clubs like Buena Viva Exeter have someone helping them with the whole planning process. Maybe that is what I should start doing.
Speaking of sugar sand, which is what we have on our local beaches, my car is still full of it from when we went out to Honeymoon Island with Gigi’s godparents. You’d think I could find a minute to get out there and run the Dyson over the carpets. But no, I just continue to muck around in the sand and it has been a week now.
All of this is to say that I think I need another vacation. I called my dad to see about coming up this winter, but he is taking classes to get back on track so he can work during tax time. Government employees and their second careers, you have to love that. My best bet is to find one of the girls who can take off for a weekend. This gets harder and harder as more of my friends move onto having multiple children. I’ll work it out, though.
