In Your Life, Have Something To Look Forward To...

It doesn't have to be Earth shaking or life-changing(even though it could be!), it just has to be something to look forward to. Anticipation can be as exhilarating as the event. Remember when you were a kid? The circus? The beach? Almost anything out of the ordinary routine? When was the last time you felt that excited? We all get so worn down with the mechanics of living,we forget life can be fun-at least once in awhile!
We are taking a vacation in late March, and going to Las Vegas. It's been about 10 years since we went, and haven't flown, or got away like this since our kids went into & got out of college! I'm trying not to see the hassle of it all, just the fun I imagine it could be......

I totally know what you mean. I like the anticipation as much as the actual act though...I always make a conscious effort to soak everything in when I am in the moment so I never take happy moments for granted. Have a blast in Vegas--enjoy the smells, the sights, the fact that you are there with someone you love and away from the ho-hum-drum regular things in life.

You are so right, why can't we just be like children and enjoy life, all of it? I so need to remember this, especially these days when I fell I can strike someone just because they're standing too close to me in the train. I think this lent thing is getting to me, I need sugar!

DogB- Sometimes physically relocating helps you do that!
Pink-Give me a list of the 500 Best restaurants you went to(If I know you!) while in Vegas!
Amy-Going retro in Vegas-see the old parts of the town!
Snow-I love to not-be-a-tourist. I'm the guy talking to the maintenance man, the maid, the 3rd shift blackjack dealer about what it's really like to live out there!
Jen- Sounds like a getaway would help you too!
Dutch Babe-excited all the time...
You must go thru alot of batteries! Hah! Just kiddin' Kid!
