It's all good so far

Back in the air. Last trip before taking some time off. I have been writing procedures and a training program. I don’t mind the business travel. The trip provides a short term project. Get in, gather the data, discuss issues and back out. It is much better than sitting in front of the PC trying to get concise instructions written and trying to avoid vacation surfing. It is time to recharge the batteries.

We are taking a vacation sans child, in laws, and dogs. It will be just m wife and I. We are only going to be gone a week but it will be a hedonistic week. The location, the hotel, the planned meals, and the wines are not on a shoestring budget. This one is going to allow us to decompress from all the challenges and stress that the changes we have had to deal with this year.

While there has not be anything that we haven’t been able to handle, it does slowly wear at us. Over the years we have learned how to deal with the stress but we have not had a break like this by ourselves. It has either been traveling with family or having a leadership role on a scout project, or burning time to work on the family accounting. Things that we did not mind doing, but this time it is just for us.

It will be a time to do some couples dreaming. We are middle aged, we have been married 25 years. We have made it this far, rolling with the circumstances. We have a number of years left. At least another decade of employment. Time to sit down and discuss the what now, what next, and what later.
