Plan a Vacation, You Need the Rest

There's a trend that concerns me that may not affect everyone, but it is affecting many, and that is the way that time off from employment is being treated. Not all companies are guilty of this, but quite a number are no longer providing sick days or personal days...and give limited number of vacation days, especially to newer employees, and if you are sick, you have to use your vacation days. Of course they don't use the term "vacation days", something more generic so it doesn't sound like they are taking from vacation time.

But for those of you so blessed to have time to take a vacation, and I know there's plenty of you out there, plan a vacation, and make it as enjoyable and restful as you can.

Have any of you vacationed in Kissimmee, Florida before? Where have you visited, if so..have you been to any of their water parks? Did you go as a couple, alone, or as a family with children? When we were raising our children, they LOVED water parks, and I know Kissimmee has great water parks and theme parks to chose from that will please children, as well as the young at heart.

For you nature-lovers, there are a lot of beautiful parks and gardens to visit. You may want to take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy an Air-boat ride. You do have an opportunity to win a 3 day-2 night getaway...there have already been a couple of drawings, but you may want to try and get in on the June 1st drawing.

Whatever you do, may your vacation be a time of rest and refreshment.
