Lest anyone think that taking a big BreakAway is merely a financial expense, let me assure you that is only the beginning.

Today, as I try to calm my brain before bed, it keeps brooding over that list. It looks something like this…

• Work income mostly stops
• Work upon return is exponentially more uncertain
• Most living expenses (mortgage, etc.) don’t take a break
• The kids’ will miss out on school, sports, activities
• The cat will bum out
• Alluring job opportunities for this winter have been turned away
• Any Bad Thing (injury, illness, theft) could ruin days
• Family disharmony could too
• Coming home (to much winter) may be depressing

Is it any wonder most people don’t do this sort of thing? I mean, even people with money, freedom, or audacity may have more common sense. HELP!?!
