Three Month Hiatus

So I decided I am done.  I have gotten bored, fed up, frustrated, and just plain tired of the daily grind.  So.  I am taking three months and doing what I want to do.  Just me, myself, and I.  I figure it is well past time where I do what I wanna do the way I wanna do it and to heck with everyone else!

Ya wanna know what I am going to do?

I am going to spend a week or two to do absolutely nothing!  Well, okay, not nothing.  I am going to grab my Kindle, keep the cocoa flowing, and catch up on all MY reading.  Reading just for the heck of it.  No reading for reviews.  No reading for editing.  Nope.  Reading for the plain ole fun of it!  I figure, in two weeks time, I should be able to knock out at least four or five books that I have been waiting to read.  However, there will be NO cooking.  NO cleaning.  NO laundry.  NO carpooling.  NO errands.  Nope.  Nada.  :P

I am going to pack up my car, and I am going road tripping.  I am taking my laptop (no work allowed), my camera, my phone, my Bible, and my Kindle. The road trip will take around three months, because I have quite a few people I need and want to see.  From here, I think I am going head to Colorado Springs to see family that I never see enough.  From there, head down to Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico to drop in (uninvited- because its MY three months- and I can.. LOL) on friends who I love and miss.  From there, I would head east into Texas to visit family stretching from El Paso, to San Antonio, to Fort Worth.  That should take a hefty amount of time, I think.  From Texas, I would head to Florida where I would pick up my Sister, kidnap if need be, and drag her butt with me to Ohio and Indiana to see my other Sisters and my best friend.

All along those visits with family and friends, I would have to stop by National Parks, and State Parks, and National Monuments.  As much as I have seen of our great nation, I have not seen nearly enough. 

At the end of the three months, I fully intend to have an additional thousand or so pictures to edit and share with everyone.

Yeah... Right...  Honestly, I am doing just fine where I am.  Yes, there are books on my Kindle waiting to be read or reread.  Yes, there are family and friends scattered across the country that I really need to see again, and WANT to see again.  Yes, I am chomping at the bit to visit every single park I can get to.  Yes, I get caught up in the daily grind and daydream OUR next vacation or family visit.  (I don't travel alone anymore...LOL... and I am completely fine with that!)

However, life is pretty crazy busy in a completely awesome way right now.  I am loving life, with all of God's incredible blessings, despite the struggles.  If I could just up and go for three months, then you better believe, the three month hiatus I described above would be the way I go.  But I can't, so I won't...   LOL
