Vacations

Speaking of Canada

Jun 22nd, 2008 | By Val | Category: Vacations

Again, I’m excited to go on vacation considering how much work I can take with me now. Last year when I took vacation I was mostly working offline and I didn’t make enough money to pay my bills. But boy did we have fun!

It’s only a few weeks until we leave and I still haven’t gotten our passports. I’ve heard that at this time they aren’t required YET. But they will be soon and I may as well go and get them as soon as I can. The wait isn’t as long as projected. My brother got his and my nephews in about 2 weeks.



Off to Canada in July

I’m off to visit family and have the second annual family meeting on July 19th. To me going to Canada is not another country because I’ve gone up there since I was a baby to see family. lol

But truly I should think about things like travel health insurance for how often we will be up there now. It’s under 4 hours to Whistler and the reserve is only about 2.5 hours away. Closer to go up there than it is to go to the other side of the state.



Step away from the computer

Being a WAHM means you work 24/7. Just like any other business owner you are constantly thinking of your business. What all needs to be done, new projects you would like to start, or ways you can update current projects.

But I know my husband has brought it to my attention many times, and I’m glad he has, that I’m always on the computer. It’s an addiction and I know it. There is just always something I can work on.



Have you scheduled your vacation?

Vacation means something different to everyone. For some of us it means turning off the cell phone and the laptop for a couple of days and just joining humanity. Then there are others of us that are needing to actually get away on one of Mexico’s cruises.

I am up for just about anything right now. This weekend I have scheduled the weekend away with my family to my friends cabin in the woods. Unfortunately I know that she has internet hooked up out there, so I’m tempted to bring my laptop. That would not be a vacation away from work, that would just be working in a new location.
