| A Bit Impulsive I am not impulsive by nature but I did something this week that certainly can fall into this category. I work as a Director of a Womans Crisis Center and its been bursting at the seams. Added to the numbers, we have a really bad flu going thought our city and half the women and children coming into shelter have it. Then my staff started getting sick and I had to cover shifts. Just when I thought nothing could get worse, I found out we had a lice epidemic Added to all of this, last Wednesday, we were the coldest spot on the planet . So I came home on Friday and said, thats it, I'm going away for a week... no kids, husband, dogs, job...just me! So I'm off to Jamaica next Sunday. This is the first time travelling by myself. If anyone out there has any tips about traveling alone I'd appreciate them.

| I don't have much experience on taking a trip by myself (I envy you) but my single girlfriends do it all the time. If you just want some 'me' time, bring some books, sunblock and enjoy your self. If you want tours you can sign up for those when you get there. Don't accept drinks from strangers (my girlfriend who is a sherif, & single traveler said to tell you this, she just called while I am writing this) Have a great time!! P.S. I wish I were going to, my son just came home from work and wrecked his truck..he is fine...we only have liability on his truck...uggg

| WOW!!! That is great - although, I am alittle jealous (HA)! No, you really deserve that! That is wonderful that you get the chance to go! What a stressful time you have had! BUT you do a wonderful job and that is much appreciated! Sometimes, I wish I could just do that, but to be honest, I love to be around the house - when I get a day to myself, it is just Mojo and Me in the house - those are wonderful, stressfree, relaxing times for me! I would be mored stressed leaving everyone behind, so that wouldn't work for me! I'm weird, I know!! hee,hee
