So-called “staycations” are becoming more and more popular these days, especially as our economic woes make it more difficult for many of us to travel. This week, our office administrator is vacationing from home. And that got me thinking about how, in my view, the “staycation” is not really the relaxing experience it’s intended to be.
Don’t get me wrong, I love lazy days at home when I can read the paper, snack, watch movies, etc. Sadly, my time for such pursuits is extremely limited. Given this, you’d think I’d be really psyched for the chance to spend a week off from work at home, right?
