Vacation

Take this job and shove it!

Toes in the water. 

Butt in the sand. 

Oh, I’d love to call it quits. 

~

I’ve got better things to do,

then worry about your stress. 

Cool ocean breeze,

9 to 5, get a clue.

~

Change my latitude!

Yes!

Come get me salty.

Change my attitude.

~

Work, work, work, til I’m black and blue.

Aching head. 

Tired body. 

No! Don’t let this week be through.

  2. Tip for retiring poor: learn to live on the amount of money you will be able to collect on social security- do it well in advance. Hone down your spending until not only can you survive- but do so with a small excess every month- you will never be traveling the globe- but you won’t be worrying about getting your needs met either. And I don’t know why your post elicited this response- but it did! Now- go back to dreaming about tropical vacations! heheheheh

    1. It’s all good. 😊 There are places I’d like to visit but it’s not happening. I completely understand living below your means. If that allows me some stress free years, I’ll take it over travel.
