Title: Do you plan to take a vacation this summer?
Post by: camellia0 on April 27, 2018, 02:16:01 pm
I am setting aside money now to do fun, relaxing things this summer. I need a vacation.

I really could use a vacation, but mostly just from life.  Nothing has really happened.  I'm looking for work and stuff, but just the normal daily stuff has gotten really stressful with my mother having cancer and needing someone to help her move about the house and make meals for her.

It feels weird saying I need a vacation when I'm at home all day, but it would be nice to just be by myself for once and not have to think about what others need.

I don't have any money, I'm hoping to go on a mini vacation towards the end of the year, but I need to pay off a few more things first.

So far, we don't have any plans.  What I have been wanting to do is rent little cabins at a nearby campground and then have the grandkids come to stay.

I'd love a vacation but I'm afraid there have been too many expenses lately. Maybe later in the year.

I really want to take a little mini vacation this year. I would like to travel, but I may just get a hotel for a few days in a nearby city and hang out at the beach.

We usually go to Florida every year but we bought a house in December so we may have to take this year off. KInd of disappointed because going to the beach is what I look forward to every year. Got to wait until next summer.

It's great to set aside your earnings for a vacation or something special. I'm using mine to offset the cost of auto insurance.

Not planning one this year, but I think we will do a few day trips. There are some places in Texas I would like to go see and a they are all day trips. Will combine it with shopping in a big city.   Also a couple of mountain 2-3 day trips near by, well with us near by could be as much as 300 miles while taking a round about trip to get there and comeback.

Yes, I will be taking a few. I'm actually going to Romania in a few weeks for my birthday, then in the summer I am taking a short trip to Ohio, at the end of the summer going to Montana and the Tetons. Trying to see if I can afford a trip over Thanksgiving.

Really was hoping to take a few days and go to the beach.  Unfortunately some unexpected expenses arrived so it's probably a no go for us.  :(

When I got my taxes back I put $1,000 in a 4 month CD to prevent us from spending our vacation money. I am taking a week off work and we are going to travel 11 hours away and still be in the same state. I am so looking forward to the vacation come july

We were planning on making a trip to the beach for a few days but found out that the pipes under the house need replacing so I guess this will be our vacation house for a couple of years at least.

One of my sisters and I are going to drive across country to go visit our other siblings in July.  We also still have 2 aunts and a bunch of cousins we'll see.  I'm super excited as I was not able to go last year.  Was going this year with or without my sister.

My "vacation" is the grandkids coming to see me....not the other way around.

Fortunately, they are all grown, and it makes it easy for me, and fun for them to travel.

Good luck!  Keep in mind a vacation doesn't have to be to a faraway destination; it can simply be a change of scenery a couple towns over doing and exploring new activities :)

NO that is out of the question for me. I have to many bills. Maybe next summer.

Yes I try to take a vacation at least once a year. This year my sister-in-law and I plan to go hiking for a week in National Parks out west. Right now we are thinking very seriously about Glacier National Park because we have heard it has unbelievably awesome hikes to offer.

Only staycations for me this year.  We're cleaning up debt following Dave Ramsey's advise.  Within the next 6 months or less we will be able to start saving and planning for a vacation.  Since hubby and I never had a honeymoon we are likely going to travel alone.  We really have no clue where we want to go though.
