Getting stuck in

Returning from any time away is usually challenging for us, and this time is no exception. The time away gives us enough space to have some genuine perspective on our lives, and it is clear we have a lot to do to reach our goals. This is not a bad thing. It is a good gauge to use; how do we feel about our lives in comparison with how we feel when away from our routine? The answers tell us which way to go. In this case, we clearly are on the right path in regards to our project, but we need to have more fun on the way to getting there.
We have spent the first few days back both settling in and developing a financial plan to make our dreams, including the project, come true. All is really looking good. It is do-able with some diligence and organization. The key for us is going to be keeping it all interesting as we go along; having new and different adventures that don’t detract financially from the big picture. We are tossing around some ideas about how to best do that. We are also planning a trip to the Dominican Republic to make sure it is a good fit for us and our project. Nothing has been booked yet, but we’ll keep you posted.
The Olympics are being held in Vancouver, BC which is just an hour or so north of us; our friend, Gina, is coming up from California again, and we are all going to head up there this weekend to check out some of the free events. The weather has been gorgeous, so it should be a lot of fun.
