Vacations
Planning vacations this morning. It is so much work. I do wish people would input a little more what they want to do. I am always worried I am not picking fun stuff. Of course someone always doesn't like one activity or the other. My oldest son had said he was interested in coming on the "real" vacation, but after talking to him last night he decided he couldn't take that much time off work. Not a surprise, but a little disappointing. Only 3 of us going this year. That will be different and hard, but planning just a quick 3 day trip that I think maybe I can get everyone on so I am trying to stay positive.
This may be our last year for a "good" vacation. I hate my job so and think I will step down from management next fall. It means a big pay cut, but I think it is contributing a lot to my depression issues. I have done it for 5 years now and it does make me very negative about everything. I used to love my job before I moved up. Of course it will go back to scrambling for hours and having to work when someone else wants me to, but we pay off my car this summer and Joey turns 18 so we will stop paying for some of his stuff. Seems like the best year to take the pay hit and maybe not feel it quite as bad.
I do hope my husband can handle it though as he has gotten used to just being able to do what he wants (within reason) and not stick to the super tight fisted budget we were on for so many years. Sigh. Such a hard decision.
