Maybe it's the impending new arrival, or possibly my stress levels with Phillip, but lately all I can think of is going on a vacation. We've only ever taken two real vacations. When I was five months pregnant with Phillip, Mike and I flew to Washington for a couple of weeks. That was the first time I had ever met his family. Then we spent our first anniversary in Las Vegas. Both were more fun than I could imagine. Since then, we have moved all over the country for new jobs that don't offer vacation for a year.
I'd love to be able to go somewhere for Mike's and my anniversary this November. I know we won't be able to afford anything too extravagant, but something as simple as going to a football game and spending a few days in the city would really be nice. It's such a different experience being with your spouse away from kids and work. It makes me feel the kind of enthusiasm for life that we had before "settling down." I honestly didn't anticipate so much stress coming along with having a family. I guess I'm just naive that way. I always expect things to work out perfectly... they never do!
So I'm just curious... where would you go?
