I've been off all week and X took DS for vacation this week as well... so it's just been me doing my own thing. I miss my little monster, but I really needed the break from everything. I did another volunteer job for HFH and now it's booze o'clock.   I know it's a margarita in a wine glass.... do I care? Not really.  |

My vacation started at noon today. So far I've had a rum drink and a really big beer at dinner. In a minute, I'm off to make another rum drink. And DH and I got our signals crossed. I have 9 bottles of rum for our vacation, he has four.  Granted, we plan on sharing...but it seems a bit excessive, even for rum buckets.    |

I was in Harrisburg ALL week! Wasting hours a day while the kid was in class... I could have taken a train to Philly! Glad it was a nice break anyway  . I took a yoga class every day and got a massage. |

I didn't realize that a touch of alcohol in a sea of lemonade is called booze!
Grab a mason jar, that Jim Beam and some coke and you get something going.
Marguerittas or Sea Breazes are for sandy beaches.

My vacation starts tomorrow, I work weekends. I have people at my house but I still I ran away from home when I got off work today. I'm in the passenger seat, on the road. I'll go back home sometime before I have to be at work next Saturday lol. Remember that old Budget rental car commercial.... "I wonder how far I can go in 72 hours"? That's me!
I'm not drinking yet, but I will be! Woo-hoo!

My vacation started Tuesday at 5 pm. and dealing with two teens that couldn’t get their act together, driving 2 hours south to the beach and hit rain.
It rained or was very overcast Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and it’s supposed to rain tomorrow. We also leave sometime tomorrow. I can’t help that it has rained the whole time we’ve been here, but supposedly it is my fault that it is. Go figure. Did I mention that it has rained the whole time we’ve been here ?
Also, back home it will be raining the rest of the weekend and into the next week. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m looking forward to going to work Monday, just to get away from these two. Usually they are great kids, but not this week. Thankfully the nightly beer/wine has helped me relax. |

It WAS tequila! And I have a tummy ache.  Oh well, right now I'm leaving for the beach. It's overcast and might rain so I'm hoping that'll scare some people away. |

We just got back from vacation. Many wine bottles met their demise.
I'm glad you had some time to decompress, MJ.

Which beach MJ? I think I am going to do something like you did, with much less $$ outlay, hopefully in August. For sanity, I want to take a planned week off in August.
Not sure what I can afford to get fixed on my car right now, so that's going to be a big influence.  (Only the driver's side passenger window works, and since I need to replace a leaking oil gasket, I inhale oil fumes about after 15 minutes on the road if I choose to use A/C, heat...  ) I think my vacation money, such as it is not, is going to the car.  |

I'm jealous....my vacation isn't until September, but some of it will be along the Jersey shore. Not peak time, I know, but that is sort of the point. Fewer people there, perhaps, since school will be in session and it might be a bit chillier. Looking forward to it, since I have not been there since childhood.
