rolling through life

for the last few months i have been mulling over the idea of taking one serious adventure - rving across America!! there are a lot of different areas in this country! would not even begin to start, well besides the obvious of getting a RV and go out. there are other folks out there doing what i want to do.

 i wonder how can i make my adventure and blogs about the adventure be different. i am not sure if my idea and the ideas of those already on the road are all that different. its looking for an audience and writing for them. big thing is to find my own voice in writing and start to write and blog every day, or at least aim to blog every day. posting pics of the day/week and where those pics are from. what the days and nights are like on the road alone.

part of the rolling through this adventure is leaving the place i called home for most of my life. born and raised in CT then taking care of elderly parents with little help from other family. this would be a serious undertaking.

need a break

Have you ever felt like you just need to take the rest of your life off? take a life long vacation from reality?

the last few months my mind has wondered from here to parts unknown. i would take mini-break from home and realized it was well deserved. i would say within a few days of being home i realized how needed the time away was needed. i am the primary caregiver to a senior with little of no help from a sibling. the sibling shows up when its convenient which is about once every 3 months and be here for a short time. when i ask sibling to do more he would promise and nothing happens. he doesn't even wonder why i get agitated.

my opinion is that he thinks i am living in a house with little care. him showing up when he does is a blessing. promises made and broken. he doesn't even acknowledge he breaks promises. he has not helped out when it was needed.
