Dreams

I feel like I am living a dream. Is this really reality? I'm at home right now but I don't feel the way that I normally feel when I am at home. Honestly, I am searching my brain and nothing comes to mind. I'm living, I'm busy doing things here or there, and there is nothing else that is coming on in my mind than that which I am busy doing. It is quite the feeling. Homework is not on my mind, papers are not on my mind, and everything that fills up my days are not on my mind. The only thing that is on my mind is the long stetch of I-70 that I get to see tomorrow. I finally got truly excited for this trip this afternoon. I was packing and then, all of a sudden, it hit me. I get to go on vacation. I don't have to worry about school or any of my responsibilities. All I have to do is plan our day-to-day activities. This is what I am excited for. I have a destination and I will end up there. How I love trips! Traveling is my cup of tea.

I don't know about you but I caught myself almost breaking my lenten sacrifice today. Suddenly I realized, "Oh, I can't eat that." No sweets for me. Luckily, I caught myself in the nick of time.

For those of you who don't get a spring break, I am sorry. You deserve it! So give yourself a special moment this weekend. Maybe a miniature spring break. Reward yourselves for everything you do. Have a special dinner or go somewhere you've always wanted to go. Enjoy whatever moment you give yourself.
