I’ve started about 5 different posts lately, only to finish none of them. I have great ideas, but not the stamina to stay up late enough to want to continue working on them. Not because I don’t care. Or don’t want to. But, I’m too tired. As I type this my eyes hurt. I’ve been staring at my computer for about two hours now, while watching the tenth final Oprah show, searching for a vacation spot for my family this summer.
I spent so much time earlier this year booking summer camps for my son, and stalking the swimming lesson calendar because I missed spring swim lessons. I did all of that earlier this year when I should have also been booking a vacation spot. Now, the spaces are full. I’ve got the time booked off from work. Mentally, I’m ready for a vacation. But, planning it is hard work. It should be fun. It will be fun, just not yet.
So, tonight my eyes are tired from too much research. I will resume posting soon, after I get some rest and finally book this vacation.
Got any ideas of your favorite vaca spots for summer time fun with little ones?

I say keep the vacations easy going so you’re not feeling like you need one when you get back. How about the Outer Banks in North Carolina? We’re taking our first trip there in June and rented a house in the sound with my sisters, hubbies, nieces, nephews and my mom. There are many rentals to choose from and it just seems like an easy vacation to plan. Good luck and I’m totally with you on staring at the screen and not able to write!!!!
