A friend of mine that recently left her job has decided to take an extra special vacation this year. She plans on going to the las vegas strip for Christmas. This really does sound like a good time, but I don’t know if I would want to go through Christmas. I think I would miss being around all my family members at that time of year. But since all her children are grown and live quite far away, maybe this is the only way she can cope. Well I really do hope that she has a great time and I’ve already put in my order for my collector spoon from Vegas.
