Here is a little something on the subject of Vacation; We have been married for 21 years, almost 22, and never had a vacation"; always had too much to do. So this year we decided it was time we had a change, took a little journey, get away from the same old range. So we studied maps and places where Summer vacationers go, but it left us real discouraged for it cost a lot of dough; giving up the idea gave us both the blues but we just had to do it 'cause the kids all needed new shoes. So we didn't get a vacation but compromised instead; w e i stayed at home in the same old house and traded sides of the bed. |
