When (if ever) in Rome…

It has become very clear to me that I need a vacation! I realized the other day that the last time I had some serious away from real life time wa in March of ’08 and even that was for only 3 days! Gahhhh! I am totally depressed by this.

I feel like I’m drowning. I’m over worked, over stressed and just plain over it.

So here is the thing, I’m ALWAYS doing things with my kids so obviously I want some away time from them, but traveling when you have kids is tough. Who wants to babysit them for 7-10 days?! I have recently been invited on trips to Bali, England, Germany and Columbia and had to turn each on of them down. (England is pending; she’s a mom too with limited time away from her girls as well) But still, how much does that suck?!

Anyway, I have recently compiled a list of my top five places to visit. In no particular order, here they are:

India
Germany
Costa Rica
South Africa
Spain

Yet, Italy,  which would probably be a  last pick  for me will probably be my first trip. Seeing as my daughter is dying to go there  and I promised her for her 13th birthday we’d do it. Alone. Sans my sons. (now I just have to find that babysitter…. )
