Greece here I come!!!
I did it! I renewed my passport, basically forced my mother to renew hers, and booked a trip to Greece in July 2025!
What took me so long to do this?
Was I waiting for the ‘right time’ – whatever that is.
Other people to coordinate plans with?
Did I think that people wouldn’t be able to get by without me for two weeks?
I’m beginning to understand that it’s not so much that they can’t get by without me, more so that they don’t want to; because when I’m away, they have to step up and be responsible for themselves.
As for coordinating plans – no thanks. I’ve told those around me that I’m not waiting for anything or anyone anymore. These are my plans/booked itinerary and you can work yourself around that or not.
The Italian isn’t coming – he doesn’t think he can take the flight over.
I’ve long since let go of the vision of a life with him as a real married couple.
So, I will move forward making decisions for myself based on my time, energy, mindset, etc.
There’s a few things I will have to do in preparation for this trip in seven months.
The main thing will be hitting the gym to prepare my butt for the long flight and my overall fitness level to be able to go on walks without heaving up a lung.
Not gonna lie – I also want to look good in goddess dresses and a swimsuit.
Let the countdown begin – 202 days to go!
