Thursday

Ah… Thursday night. Thursday night is kids’ night at karate. If you don’t get there early, you don’t get a seat. Especially now that there are lots and LOTS of new, young kids in class. Naturally, we didn’t get there early enough, and I’m sittin’ in the hallway. Thankfully, the hallway is carpeted and clean. If I wasn’t sure it would mess up my sleeping pattern for the night, I’d probably move to the van for a short nap.


The discussions of the day today between the H.H. and myself were almost exclusively about vacation. We really need to make at least an initial decision about this year’s vacation destination. If we don’t decide soon, our first choice(s) will be booked. You’d think selecting a vacation spot would be easy, but it’s not. There are so many things to take into consideration, like whether or not any given vacation spot will have things for each of us to do. We also have to take some ridiculously high gas prices into consideration. As the price as the pump rises, our potential destinations get closer and closer to home.

Activities on vacation is a hot topic for us. The H.H. loves to go fishing. Kathryn enjoys it, too. Sarah and I could take it or leave it. But we both love to browse through little shops and boutiques. We all enjoy hiking, at least to some extent. Jack can handle doing just about anything – for a while. Everyone except me loves a good amusement park.

So...  you can see where it's a topic that could consume a conversation.  This weekend, we are definitely going to make a decision.  Even if it is just an initial one.  :)
