On Friday, my husband and I went to Niagara-on-the-Lake for a trial run, make that a trial bike run. We’re still trying to use up my husband’s vacation time before he has to forfeit any unused time in August. We’re now down to about 25 days. However, if you throw in the weekends in between,

No I am not about to give up everything and just leave or change directions without some thought to the matter. Yesterday, I posted about challenges and skydiving – a challenge, I am not about to take. However, I am approaching a turning point. My husband will retire in a year and a half and
I’ve been out of the loop for almost three weeks. That is, I’ve been on vacation and life has been easy!!! It was all about spending money, not making money. It was all about easy choices – where to go, what to do, without worrying about the must do’s of the daily grind. Blogging was
