Sylvie, don't get out the violin, it's self inflicted. But I don't have anyone to go on vacation with me. I sent my son to Florida every year on Spring vacation in High School, College and Law School. When he graduated from Law School, a bunch were going to Las Vegas, and yep, your right, there he went. I have money to go on vacation. Can name several spots I'd like to go. Most of my friends are married, and are connected at the hip so to speak. I don't mind going places by myself, but not a real vacation by myself. I take mini-weekend trips occasionally (1-2x/year).
Other things for me - hmmm, I spend time with my family and friends. I babysit (that is awesome!) my granddaughter take her to the park, to see Elmo, or whatever! I like to be on the computer, play games, chat with friends I've made over the last 4 years all over the world! I like to read, but concentration not so good to do that. I used to love to take bubble baths and read a book - bubble bathes for hours and hours on end, until I finished a book. I don't like baths very much without a book. I have a jacuzzi tub in my bedroom - it needs dusting lol. I have upholstery and crafts that I like - but I don't do them much. I need to clean my house! I also do my tai chi, meditation, study CBT, and exercise. I've thought about dating, but that is like alot of b***sh*t. And as I've mentioned in other posts, my picker seems to be broken. Just can't seem to pick someone that isn't an addict (co-dependent, yes, I am). I like teaching classes and doing curriculum development so I sort of volunteer at my job. That isn't my job, but I volunteer to do it when the opportunity presents itself at work. I do it at home work at my own pace and take pride in the outcome (they like it to). What I'd like to do......research!
Okay, I guess that gives you an idea.
