HOW TO MAKE THE WEEKEND FEEL LIKE A WEEK!
In between trips….usually, right before I book a good solid vacation to some foreign land…I start to get a little wonky. I get ants in my pants & I’’m dying to shake up my snow globe up & let my sparkles fall different. Here’s a couple of ideas on how to get the most out of a couple of days off the doldrums:
Hit a pub up right after work on Friday or whatever night you call “Friday”. Somewhere you don’t usually go & bonus points if it’s super busy. Just the buzz of being around lots of people chattering & having some conversations make you feel you’re somewhere else.
Go to your local library, or museum. Spend a solid chunk of time there. Afterwards, take a drive to the bedroom community that has the best place to grab lunch. It’s a shake up. These are things you’d normally do on vacation, so it brings up those happy travel memories
Go visit a friend over night at a different city or town. Just the drive out of the city feels good. Plus, shouldn’t we all drive out of town & visit a friend over night? That’s the best vacy ever!
Check into a hotel over night….preferably a nice one. Splurge on the luxury of a hotel room. Get room service, or hit up the lobby bar & pretend you’re a photographer from Las Angeles or writer from New York. Flirt with a stranger.
Tour your own city/town. Take a self-guided tour & show yourself all your home-town attractions.
Mushrooms? Take a trip & never leave the farm.
