Here's a list of excuses:
1. Where I work moved locations and as manager it's been a huge undertaking. We're settled in now though and loving where we're at! We share a large parking lot with several other businesses and have become noticeably busier, which is wonderful for business but the change has been a bit stressful for me.
2. I've decided to take two weeks of vacation time in August. It may seem weird that something two months into the future is taking up such a large portion of my time in the present, but I'm traveling across the country and camping each night along the way aside from one hotel stop in Seattle, WA.
IT TAKES A LOT OF PLANNING. I've been calculating costs and budgeting, making reservations for a dozen campsites, purchasing tickets for tours and museums, creating packing lists and shopping lists and a hundred other lists...
My companions on this adventure are my little sister Bri (she just graduated high school) and her best friend. I'm genuinely super excited to play the role of "travel mom" for 14 days.
3. I've adopted two baby chinchillas from a coworker. They're nine weeks old and they're absolutely precious!
4. I've lost inspiration and motivation but this is definitely temporary! I'm finding my ambition.
Here's a list of things to come:
1. Planning and Packing Tips for road trips. I do believe I am unintentionally becoming a legitimate travel agent.
2. How to Eat Well and Stay Rested while traveling long distances, and living out of a car and tent.
3. Diary-style posts about each and every single day of my adventure to share with all of you! This will occur once I'm home, when I can filter through the thousands of photos I'll likely take and have reliable internet service.
