During the summer months, many of us go on vacation to spend time with our families, friends or to get away from our busy and hectic lives. Some of us are able to afford wonderful cruises, fly to the Caribbean, or take the train to wonderful cities. Due to the economy, your plans might differ this summer. Perhaps you have thoughts of spending your vacation at home. You might be considering taking a road trip or plan on cutting your vacation time. I'm a single mother of 2 Teenagers and because of my circumstances, it's difficult to make those kinds of plans when you are always trying to make ends meet. This summer I plan to spend more time outside, BBQ more often, tan alittle more and pamper myself as much as possible. I dream of visiting most Caribbean Islands and so many other places but I just have to wait! So what are your plans this summer? Will you be staying home? Will you be taking that wonderful vacation you look forward to every summer or will you stay home like me and make the best of it?

I am actually going to be working extra hard this summer- lots of overtime. For my job, summer is the busy months. I deal with property and casualty insurance. P&C is always busy for automobiles, but it is extra busy in the summer because of boats, motorcycles, etc. Times are tough, though, and I will be working 6 days a week. Anytime I find a good deal on a cheap overnight getaway, usually somewhere within an hours drive, I have been buying them. So I do not have any plans to travel far, but I do have about 6 night trips planned!
