It's been a L-O-N-G time since I've had a truly free evening. For the last five+ years, I've been in school or studying nearly every night of the week. Now that I'm closing in on being done (don't get too excited...I still have about 6 semesters left), I'm wondering what I'm going to do with all that free time. I really have no idea what it's going to feel like to have absolutely NOTHING to do at night. I'm sure I'll get back in shape big time. HA! Maybe I'll just sleep. Or read. Probably travel. Definitely spend better quality time with Todd. Probably give him a break from life while I handle the house and everything about it for a spell.
Still though. What is it like to have free time? What is it like to not have things pressing from every angle? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll read a LOT. And watch Project Runway at it's regularly scheduled time!
It's almost like thinking about winning the lottery. If you've never had that kind of money, the options are mind-boggling. That's how I am with time. Living with Todd has taught me that time is precious. What we do with it is important. Best not to waste. We only have so much of it, after all.
Ah, I do know that we'll be going to Las Vegas as soon as I graduate...it's my graduation present...and it's definitely for both of us.
Anyway, yeah....the idea of having spare time...it's overwhelming right now. Best I not get too caught up in that and concentrate on the studies for now.
You'll still be busy after you graduate, but a nice long vacation after graduation is in order and some new high heels, of course. ;o)
ReplyDeleteWhether you're busy with each other, work, church, kids, a presidential campaign, whatever... life never slows down.
The ultimate goal... my goal: retirement.
I forgot a very important one for you guys: TRAVEL!
ReplyDeleteBusy. Always. Vacations are guuuud. Plan lots of them.
