I had to work for that title.
RANDOM RAMBLINGS:
Did you know I was leaving? Not on a jet plane, which would be a lot nicer than a Toyota Highlander with two arguing kids in the back seat for 11 hours … but, we’re leavin’. On Saturday evening, we’ll be up somewhere in the Smoky Mountains.
And, don’t think I’m not going to post … because I am.
I will try to give you a blow-by-blow description of every event because I know you will be sitting at your computer anxiously waiting for my next post. (Really, I’m just doing it ’cause I want to.)
We are going skiing, which I have enjoyed in the past, but am now thinking it may be more work than I want to do on my vacation. Should vacations include physical labor? Or pain, for that matter? (And, my skiing skills stink.)
I have an entire day of cleaning and packing ahead of me, but am actually thinking of how I can sneak a nap in. (Beau will not be happy with that statement and will now call me every hour to make sure I’m not getting more sleep than him.)
I haven’t gone grocery shopping because I knew we were going to be out of town. Last night, our dinner consisted of grilled cheese uncrustables, pizza rolls, and fried eggplant. Real healthy. But, it was literally all we had. I have no idea what I will eat today … maybe tuna on hot dog buns (because we have no real bread).
Next time I post, I will be in another state.

Have fun skiing! I want to do that so badly! Hopefully Superman and I can go either this Christmas or next.
You are ocming to my neck of the woods! Well, actually not to close about three hours from me, but closer to me here than there!!
You sound like me, right before a trip, we start eyeing the dog food like it’s ribeye steak because there is no food!!
Have Fun! Hope the trip goes fast and QUIETLY 😉

I hope the long car trip with the kids isn’t TOO LONG. lol
I hope you have a great trip! Praying for peace and quiet…or at least a few minutes of it. Heaven knows it doesn’t happen on our vacations. 🙂
Hope you have lots of fun on your trip. Don’t break a leg.( I really shouldn’t say that, huh?)
Have fun, and I’ll be checkin’ for vacation posts.
