I've decided that I need to start planning my dream vacation. I'm not going to be able to go any time soon, but I want to start planning and saving for a trip just for me. It can be a girls trip, a me trip, a couples trip....I don't care....I just want to go somewhere.
The problem with planning a trip isn't really funds...I'd be willing to give up a few things so that I could save for a trip...the problem is that if I want to travel with my husband.....I'll never get to go. Finding the time has always been an issue for him. Being a police officer doesn't allow for a lot of time off....and by itself one could work around the dilemma of working at a small PD (45 officers). The other issue is that the hubs is also a member of the US Armed Forces (reserve) which means that any time that he has in the summer is taken up by the required 2+ weeks summer camp (which also eats up whatever normal leave that a person might have at the PD). The third and travel killer is that the hubs is also an avid hunter....which means that there is a week in September that he will be traveling with his father and cousin to travel to Wyoming for an Antelope hunt (which I am excited about because I love antelope and am looking forward to stocking my freezer).
It is just unfortunate becuase after hunting season (middle of January) there is an open period and then I'm busy at work :( And then turkey season is the month of April). So basically if I want to travel as a couple...I'd better pick up hunting or take the occasional weekend (not very many of those because the hubs days off are on Sunday & Monday and he has to take off one weekend a month for military service). The one week I'm off in March will be dedicated to taking the kids on a special trip (Disney World).
I can't claim to be all innocent...between all of the conferences (professional & student), board meetings (state and regional) and keeping up with school schedules for Jaylin & Hunter it is hard to find a decent block of time.
So I'm looking for a few happy go lucky female friends who are up for a little girl travel. :) That is if I'm going to go to any of the spots that I'm looking at: Destin, Belize, Hawaii, Cabo San Lucas. I want white sandy beaches and foo foo girly drinks and no stress.
Who's up for it?

I am SO interested! But I need to know soon, it may take me a while to get my husband to agree. I only get to have fun one time a year and I turned in that token for NKOTB. LOL
