Realizations
Everyone deserves to have closure. No matter what it may relate to - whatever form it may befall a person - you are entitled to put a period at the end of the sentence and move on. For myself - I will admit, I have not achieved that goal with one area of my life.
People who know me well, when reading this post, will know exactly where I am going with this. This closure I write about has eluded me for way too long. Just when I think I am right there, just two steps away - BANG - something comes racing to the forefront to put a kabash on it.
I have traveled this road for way too long and to be totally honest it is a done deal. I have had to come to some hard cold realizations - I need to put my own period at the end of this sentence and step up to the next level. When people say life is too short they aren't joking. Your life is what you make it. There are people that want to be in your life and others that can actually choke off your oxygen supply if you let them.
I may feel differently in the morning but I also need to realize that my emotions cannot be toyed with. Not anymore. I'm a survivor and I have faith that I will get through this with God's help.

Staycation vs. Vacation
This was the year that Tom and I decided - last minute - to do a Staycation. I must say I really enjoyed the time off. I love when I don't have to watch the clock. I want to do things, go places, without worrying about the time. Sometimes we get caught up in everyday life and time becomes our enemy.
Everything is run according to the clock. From beginning the day to the end of the day which I sometimes find myself comotose on the couch and it's only 7:00 PM. Everything has a time slot in my day. I must admit that I am a creature of habit but this past week of not following any type of time line has me over the moon. Even the pups have slept in. Just the thought of waking up in the morning and making a hasty decision on what the day may hold is an automatic high for me. Yeah, I should have done a little less FaceBooking and a little more writing but that is the never ending story of my life.
Although tomorrow is officially my last day of Staycation but since Tom and I will be venturing into the city to go to the doctor I am going to treat it as any other day. I will be looking at the clock from the minute I wake up tomorrow morning until my Staycation officially ends, tomorrow evening.
Tuesday morning I will return to work, be there for ten minutes, and it will feel like I had never left. That will be the moment that I will be planning next years VACATION!!!
