i gotta get away!

where has my motivation gone? i can't seem to get enough sleep at night, and i'm not staying up late. i can't get up in the mornings early enough to exercise. i'm having a hard time focusing at work. i can't commit to any of the projects that need to be done around the house. i can't think of anything to make for dinner. i can't seem to do much of anything other than some occasional reading or sudoku.

i think i need a vacation.

one of my co-workers just got back from a week in disneyland. he is happy, energetic, and motivated. i hate him. ok, i guess i just envy him.

i need something like that. not a week in disneyland, i couldn't afford that. (especially with gas prices. another rant for another post!) i do need more than i am getting on regular weekends.

my kindergartener doesn't go off track until may 25. i will be in the middle of a busy time at work, but if i can't get a vacation of some kind, i won't be productive enough to use the time i would miss! seriously. my only motivation now, is to get things moving well enough at work, that i can miss a week or so.

of course, i have no idea what to do or where to go... we need to get away. away from home, work, and the daily routine. for at least four days! the longer the better. anybody have suggestions for cheap vacations in utah? (with our limited travel budget, we have to stay closer to home in favor of being gone longer.)

it's crazy i know. it's the only solution i can think of, and i really need to do something!
