Thanksgiving took a HUGE toll on me, but I gained clarity in the process. I’m not made for vacations. Neither is my vehicle!

What went well?

I greatly prefer being at home to taking vacations, and as I explore the reasons behind trips, I’m becoming more “okay” with turning down vacation opportunities.

What did I learn?

I still greatly dislike vacations.
