Weekend Getaway?

Sometimes I just want to getaway!! A sandy beach? Or a ski lodge weekend? Even a road trip: Hubs, me, the car, a map and a tent. Ohh how nice it would be.

The problem is, we never seem to be able to go anywhere!

There is always something that keeps our wings clipped. Either Hubs has to work, or I have some school activity on the weekend, or we have no money.

Money Money Money!!!

Part of this desire to getaway is in the fact that Hubs and I didn't have a honeymoon. There was a series of unfortunate events that kept us from the honeymoon, but mainly it was money.

There is also the fact that we've only been on one vacation ever. It was the week after finals of our senior year, and we rented a cabin for 3 nights at Black Moshannon State Park. It was Glorious. Nay, heavenly. We took our bikes, and hiked, and made mountain pies ( you know, two pieces of bread and whatever filling in the cast iron molds and put it in the fire ), and even had a bit of snow ( in May!).

Our one and only getaway.

Now all this as been brought on me because I have been planning a mini-honeymoon-getaway for Valentines weekend because I have that Monday off of school! Everything was going smoothly until my colleagues and I started planning the calendar for our school musical. Now you know how sports always come first and music second?? Well turns out that the weekend we've planned is now overlapped with spring sports tryouts, and even though we reserved the gym first, WE have to reschedule.... GRRR

So guess when we have to reschedule the musical for? Thats right: Valentines Weekend.

Ohh boo.

I guess it is not too bad, but I sure do get jealous when I see everyone else with totally awesome weekend getaway plans. So do me a favor and tell me how lame your weekends are.

Hubs and I camping!
