Living on Main Street, USA hasn't always been very mainstream.
I am a type A personality. That is about as far as mainstream I think I go.
I do not have 2.2 children. I do not have a mortgage nor tons of debt. I live within my means. Not the American way. I do have two cars, a husband. I am a democrat, my husband claims to be an independent but has republican points of view. We don't talk about it. If you want to have peace in your home, you can't talk about it. I know I am opinionated. I didn't know I was passionate in my opinions. I found that out a few years ago and was quite surprised by it. Whew, shocking. Anyway, I realized today I am also a martyr. In our Mainsteet existence, we try to take at least one vacation a year. I LOVE to travel. I LOVE my husband. He LOVES to Cruise. I like to Cruise and enjoy being with him. So I sacrifice for him and go cruising with him. I know, you think I am a self sacrificing saint. True. But you do what you have to do. So in three days, we head out for our 8 Th cruise. Actually, if I wasn't me, I would be jealous of me. I am really looking forward to getting away. The only problem is that it is hard to get away. I have to leave a business, a job, a house, my dogs, my life. And when I return, I hit the ground running. But for 9 days, I am going to relax. I am going to enjoy the days, the nights, the evenings, the sun, view, the play. My usual vacation is done Type A style, but not this one. I am going to relax. Mark my words. It is going to be lawn chairs and shut eye. Sweetness and not a schedule in sight. I may keep you updated, but more likely not. I can't promise anything, that would require a deadline, a task. That would be my normal way, but remember, I am practising a non type A style this vacation. So, instead, I will have to let you know how it all went, later.....How is that for a start. Wish me luck.
