Back from a New England Vacation… and I loved it!

KarenBlakeI just came back from my July vacation! It was just what the doctor ordered! I got to hang out with some friends I haven’t seen in a while and my sisters as well.

Of course, first I enjoyed a few days right here on The Cape… thank goodness for the most part the weather was good. I did a lot of biking along the back roads of Harwich. It was beautiful.

Then we made my way our Maine…we didn’t go too far up…just to Kennebunkport it was a nice change. Eating seafood was the theme for the week. I tried to be good and stay on my diet…so I ate everything broiled, baked or on the grill. I avoided having anything fried (I know I’m boring but after losing 70 pounds I didn’t want to go backwards!) My goal was to eat light and exercise a lot…which I did!

Since I’m talking about vacations…it reminded me about  someone I worked with early in my career who hadn’t taken a vacation in 15 years. That’s crazy! The radio station honchos gave him 3 weeks every year to use…but he never did. Then finally one day management went to him and said you have to go…take your vacation…you WILL have a job when you get back. I do think he was paranoid that someone would steal his job…but no one ever did.

We all need time to decompress. I did that and more on my July vacation!  Now back to the job I love!
