One might say that having something to look forward to is a big key to happiness...
Uhh, that would be my philosophy I suppose. Without a vision on the horizon I find it pointless to get out of the bed that only wants to be made, even as one slugs down the first cup of coffee.
There's always something that needs getting done, no matter who ye are, and it's usually some drudge job that I find ways to put off. I find drudge work boring and plodding. Which is why I love almost anything that smacks of extra-ordinary and gets me OUTTA tha' mundane RUT. For instance I adore my dishwasher, and my car, simply because they make drudge work easier.
Still,getting away from the house is my favorite thing to do. Which is why this very morning I called over to Quinn's, in Paradise, Montana and booked a short getaway.
They have remodelled and upgraded the resort since our last visit. They're only an hour away, and by golly it's been six years since we were there last. The senior discount works out great for the budget, and bigod I'm worth the small expense.
My whole mood has lifted now that there's something different waiting just up the road. A hot soak, mountain air, a rustic bar and BIG SKY...a fitting conclusion to a relatively ordinary summer. Three trips to Montana in one year...who'd a thunk it possible?
