Another week gone

It is Friday afternoon again, the beginning of the weekend. But that also means that five days of my life have gone never to be replaced or relived. Looking back, it was a good week overall. I had a long time friend visit, he was on a business trip an managed an extra day to stop in. Even though I live in one of the most touristy cities in the country, not many people visit. Hmmmm, I make good breakfasts.
I guess most of my friends have settled into a day routine that turns into a weekly then monthly. When I was an accountant I could tell the day of the month by what tasks I had to perform. Was it closing entries? reports? reconciliations? inventories? So I can understand, through in a spouse a child or two, and then jumping on a plane for a quick get away is no longer easy, or inexpensive when it means multiple plane tickets and meals in restaurants. Though with the price of gas declining, and hotels offering discount, a vacation might be in reach. Instead of a new ipod for Christmas or cell phone, just because they have new features, why not a family vacation?
The ipod of phone will be long forgotten, but the memories of the year we flew to Florida for the holidays will be cherished for a long time. Check out the deals on Future Vacations, Discovery Future Vacations or Damron Vacations. There are all sorts of options to make family memories that might fade, but will last more than something purchased and placed under the tree. And once you are booked, you can use the old iPhone to keep track by using 2go.travel, it can last one more year.
And if your life has gotten too routine, maybe a change of careers is in order,or just the location. Job.travel offers a wide spectrum of opportunities all across the country. So maybe after that surprise vacation, or that trip home, maybe you would like to start fresh, or maybe return to your roots, check out the web site, you might find just what you have always been looking for.
