I’m Going On Vacation For A Week And I’m Not Sure What I’m Going To Do With Myself

I'm one of those people that just doesn't like to spend any money on myself. I guess you can take that for whatever you want it to mean, but for me it means I buy maybe two expensive things as little gifts to myself a year. And then, I will plunk out whatever I've got on other birthdays and anniversaries and whatnot. But I just can't seem to make myself spend the money on me.

That means I almost always have staycations. It just seems like it's a waste of money for me to go somewhere these days. I have travelled, I've been to Phoenix, Cincinnati, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, Toledo, Las Vegas, New York, Washington D.C., Memphis, Knoxville, and of course around here in Missouri. And I lived for a year in England and saw a bit over there.

But maybe my frugality is also linked to the fact that I'm getting old. At least in my mind, I am. I'm getting lazier the older I'm getting. I don't want to GO anywhere. Sure, it would be nice to take a trip one of these days, but... not this time. I just don't wanna. I see myself on my couch with my cat and Netflix pulled up.

Well, maybe that's a fib. I won't be travelling anywhere crazy. I will be going to the water park this weekend with what looks like a small army of people, and maybe Husbando and I will go to an amusement park this week to get out of the house. I'm sure I'll be bored enough at the end of it to be charged up and ready to come back.

But other than that....  I expect a lot of naps on the couch.

Lazily yours,
Behka
