I need help....and mind you, Orlando is only 2 hours away.

Just shut up and go. Stop with this funk you're in. Poolside with a drink in your hand is a wonderful thing. Although, I never got the Orlando thing. If I'm going to the bikini state, I want my toes in the sand.

Thanks for that....this damn quarantine just got me so used to being home all the time.
We are literally 15 miles from the beach and it is soooo crowded right now with everyone down for Spring Break that we don't dare venture there. 2 hours waits for restaurants, no parking...
We'll go to Orlando and sit by the pool and maybe do some GoKarts and out to eat. Its close enough but far enough.

You have to do it. The longer you are a hermit, the longer it's going to take for you to get back to normal. Go have fun. Catch some rays for me. I can't wait to sit in the sun.

Agree with this 💯. It's not healthy to be a hermit. You'll enjoy it once you're there and relaxed. The closest water to me is brown and unappealing so I'm jelly. You can tease us with pool & beach photos while you're sipping cocktails.

OK, I'm only doing this b/c you pressured me into it

Needless to say...I left all my meds at home. I did give Delta-8 a whirl while there and had to use it twice for my migraines....helped alittle; better than nothing but not as good as my medical card products.

Good trip overall? Relaxed and refreshed?

Wait wut?!?!!

Non sequitur:

Literary Device

A non sequitur is a conversational literary device, often used for comedic purposes. It is something said that, because of its apparent lack of meaning relative to what preceded it, seems absurd to the point of being humorous or confusing.

Always a good trip to TN. Been there like 4 times in the last few years...we love it there. Would of been nicer if I wasnt bothered while out of office. But 20 minutes into the road trip going there, I received a call from my boss needing help. But yet they dont think I need an assistant (last one quit due to health reasons) and and always once I return...have to put out many fires and address hot issues. I guess 300+ emails for 1 week out isnt too bad .

I feel you dude, I short myself out of vacations because I get afraid of what you just dealt with and instead never relax and just keep working everyday

THIS is why I go to the cabin (no cell OR land lines) or leave the country (you pay for my international calling, or I leave my PERSONAL cell at home) I no longer have a work flip-phone

I live between Knoxville and Nashville. Where did you venture here? I must agree with your point that medical products are quite nice.

Way to do it. The cabin we go to has no innernet, land line, cell reception, or tv; only radio, with NPR being the only bearable station, (sometimes. )
We always have lots of CDs & reading material!

PS: Got electricity ~8 yrs ago.

My dad grew up in Kingsport and used to run 'shine on his motorcycle through the county. I can't even imagine what those days were like

Same, but I still reply. It's fun little game I play that I like to call, "How relevant is my response."

Life is much easier when not depending on batteries, ice & kerosene!

We stayed here again and ventured out a bit. My sons request was the bouncy pillow, goats, and arcades #MissionAccomplished. We went to Tuckaleechee Caverns but my claustrophobia didnt allow me to go more than 50 steps into the cavern and I had to retreat. I thought I could push thru it for my sons sake...not the case and they gave us a full refund. Later when we go back to the resort (after me feeling bad about the event), my son said its ok..I understand and gave me a hug #Priceless!
