[quote=Anonymous]I make sure my house is perfectly clean before we go on vacation. All laundry is done. All yardwork done. Etc. This can be super stressful, so it may be worth building in a visit from a cleaning company before you head out of town. Perhaps a neighborhood teen could take care of mail pick up/ yard work/etc. Definitely no cell/email. Don't do the whole.. I may be able to check my email if there is something important.. routine. I am on vacation. I am entitled a break. I will be a better parent/worker/human being after it is over. For one week.. I am being selfish. Make sure you have fully budgeted for the trip. I often spend the first few days worrying about the expenses, trying to not go overboard. Usually by midweek I get to the point where I don't care about that. It definitely helps to have cash in my pockets, verses credit cards, for some of these expenses so I feel less guilty. Maybe book a spa item for day one. Pedicures always make me feel vacation ready. I often don't have time before the trip so doing it on the trip solves that problem.[/quote]
