I love a good vacation. A nice road trip. Pack up the car. Start singing some of those traveling songs…a little John Denver. A little Willie Nelson. Take me home country road or on the road again. (You know you’re singing them in your head. You’re welcome!) Now, I’m a planner. When I take a trip, I like to have it mapped out. I have a destination in mind. I make a plan. We plug the address into our GPS and follow those directions. (I don’t like her to yell at me, “Recalculating!”) We pack our clothes and food for the car and the kids pack their car bags with books and iPods and chargers and everything they’ll need while we travel. I don’t even mind stopping along the way to hit the outlets or the Bass Pro Shop or whatever we see because at the end of the day, I know where we will end up. At the destination. It’s in the GPS. I don’t have to wonder where we’re going. I can see it right on the map. Now, you can’t plan for everything, and sometimes there are detours, but at the end of the day, our GPS will get us there! I know I’m not the only planner out there. Who can relate? I wonder if Joseph could…..
