A Day Off Once in a While
I am on vacation. With Wednesday being a stat, we decided to take Thursday and Friday off as well as all of next week. “Where are you going? What are you doing?” I hear you ask. Not sure how, but I hear it. Well, I’m going to my couch and I’m doing mostly nothing. We gots us an old fashioned STAYCATION! Pew pew pew!
Yeah, we’re just sitting at home, putzing around. I’m trying to her up from the couch to do something at least once a day. Yesterday I unloaded and loaded the disaster and made some bread. Today I’ve already picked up some dog poop. Just doing small stuff like that to make sure I don’t grow into the couch. Plus, if I sit too long staring at video games I’ll get a headache. I know from experience.
I’ve always enjoyed a good staycation. People always say go places, and I don’t want to argue about that, but I’ve always smiled sitting at home for days more than going places. Yeah, my trip to the Yukon was super fun, but couch and tv at home! And own bed!
Daniella wants to travel more, and we will someday. She wants to hit up the Greek isles. I’m happy hitting the Geek........I dunno, you finish the pun for me. I'm happy and relaxed sitting at home. I don't have to worry about catching flights, figuring out what to eat, where to go, etc. Plus my puppies are here. Farting right in my face.
And it's not like I can go camping at this time of year. Correction: it's not like I WANT to go camping at this time of year. I would love to build a show shelter that the outdoor boys so on YouTube, but I don't want to sleep in it. I have a much better bed. The weather's alright for a dog walk, but if you're not working in it, why would I want to go outside in overcast, windy, -2 weather? I don't. Kinda limits you to either going somewhere or just staying at home. Picking your nose.
Gotta love it.

Unloading the disaster - so you have the same dishwasher I have?
Staycations are pretty good. But I find they're worse the longer I'm there. I start to feel guilty that I'm not redoing the weatherstripping on the doors or keeping up with laundry. Those guilts don't exist if I'm somewhere else. But going away is so damn expensive these days.
