these recent episodes with illnesses (mine, hubby’s, the kids’) make me want to pack up and escape. i’m starting to imagine that i’m breathing in stale air, stuck in a densely-populated city that sees many travelers from flu-infested cities in the northern hemisphere.

dominican republic vacations are out of the question, but i’ve been thinking hard if we should bite the expensive airfares to manila. with the thousands of OFWs going home for the holidays, december is the most expensive time to fly to manila, it seems. gawd, i so want to fly home, if just to catch up on sleep and not have anything kitchen-related to do for a couple of weeks.

but i’m foreseeing a number of major expenses when the new year comes in, and my left brain (purportedly the logical side) says that an unplanned trip right now is just not going to cut it. and my right brain (allegedly the imaginative side) can’t come up with a way to make it happen. sigh.
