I think I posted about this before. My idea of vacation is not what most folks think of when they hear "vacation." I'm off work until July 5th!  
I plan to work on some projects around the farm, sleep, read, stay up as late as I danged well want, catch up on some projects at my mom's house, ride Kieran, hang out in the barn and just chill.
There's a part of me that would like to travel somewhere, but it's such a pain to try and find someone to look after the farm while I'm gone. Am also not real excited about traveling by myself. To me a large part of the fun of traveling is sharing the experience with a companion. Got no one to travel with me. Before anyone feels sorry for me, I realized a long time ago that my farm is my favorite place to be with all the things I enjoy doing right here at home.
I love working in the yard/gardening. I am working on a major project while I'm home to tear down some old fencing and move it, then put in an extensive flowerbed. I'll take some pictures of the project and post them.
I am flat out exhausted from the insane push at work the last few months. I slept 10.5 hours last night! The idea of two weeks of not having to wake up to that &**%)( alarm at 5:30 in the frickin' AM sounds like heaven to this tired ole lizard.
The critters have already said they are happy to have me home during the day. Mikey has parked himself next to me on the sofa or at the computer when I was in the house. BG came and hung out with me while I worked in the yard. Smart dog laid in the shade while I busted my butt in the sun. The horses came over to check out what I was doing while I tore down the old fence. I think Kieran was looking for a reason to snuggle. Woody is a sidewalk superintendent when anyone is working outside. He is Mr. Curiosity checking out what's going on.
