A vacation consists of:
Two weeks that are
too short, after which you are
too tired
to go back
to work, but
too broke
to afford not
to. (Source unknown)
2 true. What say you?
Hard to say … I’m still recovering from vacationing at Disney World.
But then there is that other kind of vacation. We went to Cape Cod and did nothing. After that, we rested. It was soooo good to just stop. read books. listen to birds. take a nap. get up and read some more. I loved it!! (I do like the Disney kind, too, we just were in the do nothing mood this summer!)
Actually, my vacation was more of the just relax at home this time around. But I still have always liked the definition in the post. I think I first heard it in a sermon illustration back when I was a kid.
Two weeks are not
too short or
too long. Just enough time
to rest, relax, enjoy, and ready
to go home and back
to work. Vacations are just
too perfect, and coming home is great
too. Thanks be
to our wonderful God, who giveth all things
to richly enjoy.
How can you argue with that? Okay, cancel my post and go with Margaret’s instead!
eclexia - Do you mean this? The All American Two Week Summer Family Vacation
Yep, that’s the one.
Here is a quote that a friend of mine posted recently on Facebook that I really like.
I am about to take a nice long two-week vacation. People at work will learn again that “the cemeteries are filled with ‘indispensable’ people.”
