Chillaxin'

Tuesdays are appropriately stressful. That is the only way I now how to describe them. I love working to the point I feel challenged, but I don't take the stress home with me. I head home at 5 and my favorite part of the day begins. I came home, made dinner, and had precious family time.

Our favorite way to relax is to travel. We can't do take any old trip on a whim, since Minot is fairly remote. We've driven to Minneapolis a few times an chad a blast! Unfortunately, it's an 8 hour drive. If we didn't want to take a day off of work, we would make the drive Friday night, and either arrive around 2 am, or stop in Fargo and continue on Saturday morning. Then, all day Sunday is spent driving back. After one or two trips, I'm sure you can imagine how stressful these mini trips can be. We would rather take a few trips a year and be able to take the appropriate amount of time :) Plus, maybe we'll live somewhere with a normal sized airport!

Anyway, with our impending move sometime next year, we've been worried to plan too far out. This has ended up being stressful for us- just imagine telling a planner personality to plan on not planning anything. See? Stressful. So, naturally, we booked a short trip to New York City in February! Of course.

Here's to planning our trip home in November, hosting my family in December, Vegas in January, NYC in February, Houston in March, and Dallas in May. Sounds relaxing, doesn't it?!
