A Solo Getaway on the Beach Starts Today

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

My husband was a little bit shocked when he realized that December 1 is today and I am leaving. Well, he is not as astonished over the mere fact I am leaving because he knew my vacation was fast approaching but he seemed to have forgotten that I'll be working elsewhere for 3 weeks. Back when I informed him last March, it probably didn't seem like that long of a time for me to be otherwise occupied. 3 weeks seems long to him now.

Yes, 3 weeks of caring for the cats. 3 weeks of feeding the critters, changing their litter pads and scooping pellets; 3 weeks of poking Pica with insulin twice a day. Serving 12 cans of cat food a day. Not that he doesn't do this already but he only does it half as much as he'll be saddled with in my absence, when he'll have to care for them 100% of the time.

He can fend for himself very well, though. Hello Round Table pizza. He doesn't do a lot of cooking when I'm not around. You can read more in my personal blog today at this link: Brrr . . . Time to Work From Hawaii.

Elizabeth ... the song "absence make the heart grow fonder" came into my head as I was reading this. Not to suggest that your hubby's heart needs to grow fonder ... he will miss you no doubt.

He looks at the situation as how he can do all of the things I rarely want to do and he can order all of the foods I won't eat. We always try to look on the bright side. Like, when he goes out of town without me, I stick the Wusthof in the dishwasher, so there.

Travel safely.  And yes, if being at the airport at 6am is your greatest problem today, you are living a charmed life.

Well it doesn't count the 3 hours I had to sit at the airport in Honolulu. Although I did have lunch with a nice couple from British Columbia, so it wasn't all bad.

Good morning Elizabeth.  So I take it by the time you receive my comment you'll be wearing a grass skirt, shaking your hips while sipping an adult beverage....

Elizabeth, a 3 week getaway sure sounds fun, and would be nice about now.  Sure your husband will miss you, but have fun!
