i just came from purchasing eyeglasses and spending a butt load of money. i always have buyer's remorse when making big purchases like that when i'd rather spend the money on travel. oh, my priorities. so it is in the home stretch of the trip back to the 'homeland' and we're getting excited with everyday that passes and every piece of travel accessory we purchase. not only do i get to finally see where my parents were born and grew up but i also get to experience my own private island at the eco-resort on the island of Miniloc. i promise to write and take lots of pics to document the travels.
things have been busy - as they always seem to be in my life. often times i have to apologize to my partner for how jam packed my calendar can be. alas, it's all good things and there's a part of me that secretly enjoys being on the 'go' and doing things. sometimes i think its good because those times we have to slow down and do absolutely nothing we tend to cherish more than the average person.
oh how i would enjoy a glass of wine right now. just been one of those days. speaking of wine, a bunch of us attended the wine expo this past weekend. felt like i was 'expo-ing' it all day since i went to the kid's expo for some research for work then the 'adult' expo to enjoy some vino. wine was plentiful and good company was at hand so we had fun. i've made it a rule of mine to no longer mix alcohol - it hurts too much.
she and i have been tossing this idea around about spain in the fall along with a few local east coast trips this year. always keeps me daydreaming. just wish we could both have more time off of work. a dream of ours being that we take a 'leave of absence' and trek the globe for a few months maybe a year. yeah...government jobs don't allow too much of that.
