are we there yet?!

        These day's relaxation can be difficult to acquire. People go to work because they have to not because they want to. We used to be able to say "I'm stressed out! I need a vacation!" It worked to. We would pack up the family and hit the road to the nearest attraction that promises a glimpse into another world of colorful thrilling rides and finger licking food options. Yes that my friends is a vacation. Now instead of jumping in the car, gassing up, and taking off, you have to save up for at least a couple of months just to afford the gas! Then there's the hotel, food, entertainment, and shopping cause yes if I'm going on a vacation ima need my t-shirt and shot glass thank you very much!
        So now you've decided that you're going on vacation, you've been saving for anywhere from a few months to a year, and you're ready to book your trip. Thanks to the world of Internet, smart phones, and apps we have a plethora of sites to aid us in getting the best deal for our money. So after we've searched, compared, bid, and booked, we have our vacation package. Now if you're anything like me you start packing a week before you leave. The day finally comes, you've weighted every bag and measured every bottle, and after passing the never ending security checks (depending on where you're going) you're finally on the plane, tray table up, mobile devices off, seat belt on, ready to go.
        Now I would like to take a moment to ask a few questions. How many of you try to save a portion of your "spending money" for when you get home? How many of you will take a trip with a person you don't like just to get a better deal? How many of you stalk the cleaning carts to sneak extra toiletries (don"t laugh people do it)? How many of you spend your trip thinking about the bills that will be waiting for you when you get back?
        All these thing's are stressful. We work hard, and deserve to actually enjoy our vacation time. You might not have tuns to spend, but that doesn't mean you cant still have a good time.
