The fam damily and I went to Orlando {again} last week. That was our fourth and final {fingers crossed} trip there this summer.
I didn't visit any theme parks this time. No college visits. No agenda for me.
The kids {my girls + their boyfriends} went to the Universal parks for 2 days.
The Coach was coaching his travel team each day.
What did I do?
I walked the 'hood.
I read a book while sitting in the pool.
I watched a few movies that scared the poop out of me. (The Call & Panic room)
I introduced the kids to The Breakfast Club.
I cooked dinners for our peeps.
I took a nap one day.
I was t h i s close to being bored.
It was blissful. I've never been t h i s closed to being bored at home. never.
I brought my camera, but never took it out of it's bag....I was so relaxed and my camera just looked too heavy of a burden at the time.
I took a grand total of two photos with my phone, both almost identical to this:
...the story of our lives....this house is demanding of time and money.
I'm ready to sell this
Anyone want to rent a room to this crew?
XOXO
I've heard cults make you work pretty hard.
ReplyDeleteProbably wayyyy harder than the camera-less weekend!
What fun!
Come on over!! So close to being bored . . . I do not have a clue what that feels like, but it sounds a little heavenly.
ReplyDeleteLooks/sounds like fun. You don't know bored until you are my age!!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of va-ca!
ReplyDeleteHope the pool is working now :)
Sounds divine! I would really enjoy a vacation like that right now. :-)
ReplyDeleteCurious... do you kennel your pups somewhere when you travel or have someone come to the house and pamper them? Just wondering. We have only kenneled ours once and they had a good experience.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect kind of vacation!! Almost bored? LOVE! lol
ReplyDeleteSo close to being bored? Sounds like a great vacation to me. I hear those cults really work you hard but first they brain wash you into wanting to work hard so it's not so bad.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you need a vacation to get OVER all of the vacations you have had!!!!!! ha ha .... What--no trip to the mountains this year????? Maybe you should do that in the Fall when the leaves are pretty....
ReplyDeleteI had a good friend who went home after a vacation and found that lightning had hit their home.. They lost most all of their electronics (AC/computers/fridge/internet/phone, etc. etc. etc. SO---glad that that didn't happen to you all!!!!!!
SMILE--life is wonderful. Right????????
Hugs,
Betsy
I find it hard to think of you being bored. Could you keep your garden if you moved to a condo? Hopefully your home won't demand too much time or money t get the pool pump fixed.
ReplyDeleteIf you were in a commune, would you have sister-wives to help with the work? But then would you have to share the Coach with the sisters? Nnnnooooo!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy for your peeps that they had such a sweet and agreeable, relaxed chaperone with them. Not everyone is so lucky. You are one cool mom.
so glad you had time to do nothing!!!! I did nothing at home this weekend, too... took time to play :) but now that you are back from travelling we need to make a lunch date. i was hungry last week... now i am starving!!!
