| Questions: Husband and I can't agree on vacation - what to do? My husband and I are having a disagreement over where to go (and indeed whether to go) on vacation. He's currently unemployed -- out of school for a year and hasn't been able to find work in his chosen field -- but we are doing well financially and can easily take a vacation. Well, for the past year, my hours have been crazy at work -- I've been working 50-70 hours most every week, including a lot of traveling. We are short-staffed at work, so a vacation has been unthinkable, but now things are going to be slowing down very soon, which means that I'll be able to take a nice long vacation -- like 2 weeks, which is rare.

Last summer, we went to London and France (the first trip overseas for both of us) and, after begging him to go for several weeks, I planned to go with a friend -- until he announced at the last minute that he would go (he claimed that he didn't want me to get "lost" over there, lol). I wonder if he would do the same thing this time. Unfortunately, this year, all of my good friends are pregnant or just had babies, so I wouldn't have anyone to go with. He said that I could go by myself, but I wouldn't enjoy it as mu |
