Time for a break

What time is it? It’s time to take a break from the blog. Wait a minute, if I am writing about taking time off from the blog, isn’t that still blogging? I guess, I’m keeping my goal to write every day for 30 days is still going strong.

I have been checking the other blogs of our Meet Up group and I believe I am the only one who has consistently written a blog each day, but the second half of the month will be a bit tough because of a lot of things happening at work (a dinner event this week and getting a newsletter ready) and I go on vacation beginning the 23^rd.  

It’s been a long time since my brother and I have gone on a vacation, and although we are not making a big trip, we will be heading to Lake Tahoe for a few days, with a stop at Apple Hill on the way back. My brother and I have different days off, so it can be tough to schedule activities, but we will be celebrating his 50^th birthday, so I thought this would be a fun time to explore the area.

We would both love to travel to other states and countries, but we just can’t afford it. Instead, we take smaller day trips. I have a childhood friend who now lives in Australia. She has invited us to visit, but I don’t see it happening in the near future. However, if I am lucky enough to win the lotto or hit a jackpot at Thunder Valley then I can start planning that trip. I can’t even remember the last time I bought a Lotto ticket, and my big spending on the slots is usually $20, when I do make it out there. Sometimes it just takes I spin of the slot machine wheel to hit a jackpot. Someone plays $2 and wins $10,000. I’m ready to be that person. 

I will be looking forward to the 23^rd, when it’s time for a break!! I guess I did have something to write about today.
