What would you like to get excited about?
In your life, this year...🌹♥
I want to not be afraid of dating or finding love, but be excited to find it.

I need to get off my behind, and go on a "real" vacation. The last one was Yellowstone, if I recall, yet in 2018, if I recall.
Yet I did go visit my family out of state (twice), though. But those were not really "vacations".
Covid forced me to cancel a 2020 vacation to Yosemite. Then I waited. When things opened up again, I could not decide where to go (I did not want to go to Yosemite since it was the wrong season).
Then I got sick, was in the hospital and rehab, and could not walk without a walker. My strength is mostly back, yet I am still unsteady. Yet I can drive long distances. I think I could handle a flight. But not a lot of walking. I should ask for one if those airport golf carts LOL! Yet the building where I work is larger than some satellite airports I have been too! It even has a long concourse. Yet no moving walkway.
I just hope sticker shock won't turn me off from travel. It has been a while since I searched for flights, hotels, and cars.
I still forced myself to take time off from work these past few years. I plan to take a week off in April, for instance. But the past few years I've mostly just stayed in town. Yet I took day trips.
The longest staycation I have been on (as an adult) was actually last fall during the government shutdown (I work for them). I started driving farther and farther every day, yet still returned to sleep in my own bed. I saw areas of central PA that I'd never been to before. Such lovely mountains and valleys.
Yet maybe in April I will just focus on apartment hunting. Or maybe condo hunting? I have until June to decide to stay put, or move. I have lived at my current place since 2009. Time for a change, and an upgrade, perhaps.

@JoyfulSilence How about this year taking a week off and go look around one of the two.

Maybe not this year. I planned to take off some time late summer, and it could be too hot there.
Of course, perhaps that is a reason not to move there! (Duh)
But maybe some northern, or more hilly parts?
I just want a mild winter and no humidity. Yet no scorching summer heat, too. I need warm, dry paradise! No sweating. No heat stroke. Maybe California, instead?

@Younameit I'm more petrified Bec I feel unworthy to date. I have crippling PTSD and I'm sure many would ditch me if I couldn't do a lot of date like excursions 😕 But there's a guy at a place I frequent and he seems to now recognize my voice when i order and is very kind. That makes me feel excited, even for a min.
