Sunday Night=time to think about things.

Sunday night! Super Bowl Night! I didnt watch it. I have been thinking about the great quality of life here and whether or not is it worth staying here. I just put the baby to bed and sat back down to do some typing. I always have a hard time getting them down, just like doing things with them. i also like having some down time. The kids are like the Energizer Bunny! They just go until they drop from the lack of energy. Back to the quality of life...I dont like the smog and the haze anymore. The cold is hard right now and the days are just not long enough, just not enough sunlight. I have always been wanting to take a vacation to some place where there are smooth sandy beaches, turquoise water and lots of sun. I have heard that the beaches in Mexico are nice...I have never been there. I would love to get to the Pacific Coast for just a little bit, a small vacation so that the rest of winter here can be a little more tollerable. I would love to just wander up and down a beach, find a nice spot and just lounge. Oh and of course have some one just bring me nice, cool, fruity drinks! Well, it is always good to hope for some change.

I went with my wife recently to a time share sales pitch. What a pain in the rear end! Nothing like a little pressure to spend thousands of dollars on "points". You dont even get a real unit with a deed showing your week of ownership in a complex. What you do get is the ability to buy something that you dont get anysort of ownership in, kind of strange. They just show you the beaches and the wonderful places you can go, but oh! the cost! It is funny exactly how many of the classic sales pitches you can spot in the presentation. The new things they have added to the arsenal is the guilt factor, " if you dont do this your kids will not have the special memories" that they will take with them into old age. What a crock! It is a day by day adventure, it doesnt have to be just one week a year...it can be whenever you want to take the time to share some of yourself with your kids. It is hard to open yourself up and show some of your close feelings and things that make you YOU!
