If you could take a break for a month from anything at all (kids, housework, mowing the lawn) what would it be? |

in all honesty, as much as I need a break from my kids...I don't think I could take a month of being away from them.....I would take a break from doing my chores...  I would most like to take a break from paying bills ~SEA |

A break from life! I'd go to a deserted island, with blue crystal water, warm weather, and peace and quiet!! |

I'd take a break from everyone and everything I know. WhtDove's idea about the deserted island with the blue crystal water sounds wonderful! That is where I would be. Just because I hear voices doesn't mean I'm crazy...SHUT UP IN THERE!!! |

A break from soberness... and it would be at the bottom of a whiskey bottle, the sacrastic part of me speaks. the nice part of me says Australia, a break from this country, family everything in this country.

First and foremost...my job...then paying all the bills...then a break from any and all responsibility for kids, hubby, dog, cat, and other assorted furry critters. How can you save me? |

Ah, a break would be wonderful. I think mine would be so extensive, first a break from my daughters' problems, she wears me out more than anything. Then a break from memory of lost love. Just forget about all of it for the month. And this break would have to be spent on a private oceanfront area. I need alone, and the sound of the sea, I think that would do it. |

lmao@ brian...that reminded me, most appropriately of an old Irish quote: "If the ocean were whiskey and I were a duck, I'd dive to the bottom and never come up!" sigh...I would take a break from HERE...the miserable humidity of New Orleans...that is just kicking in, too. I would go someplace cool--someplace where the bars close sometimes--and the parties end before they start again...OH POOR ME!!!  |

I'd have to place my vote with Poet deVine. But a toss up as to the cabin on the lake or a cottage on a deserted beach. What a lovely thought. Not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment. |

Sometimes it's good to get away from Passions |

Well, I just finished taking a month-long break from Passions.... and school just ended on Thursday.... and I haven't started work yet, but I will next week.... so... umm... I guess it would be HUMANS. I would go to the middle of the desert, to a place where I can live confortably for a month's time, and be all by myself, do whatever I want with no one around for a month. *sigh* Sounds nice to me. --Marie "You're the girl of my nightmares, erotic and skull-faced. |

All of my surroundings... I'm really restless... I want to go to a city and be able to lose myself in a crowd. I want to go to a place where people don't know what family I belong to, esc. I want to be a stranger somewhere!  "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Hmm.. My husband?  Seriously, I would take a break from all human contact, go deep deep into some wooded area, shut myself up in a cozy lil cabin with my computer, books, paper, pens, candles, etc..etc. I would write, sleep, eat, read, and never give a second thought to how things were progressing at home. Just for a month. |

No question ... I'd love to go to my parents old cottage up in Muskoka, where I grew up in the summers as a child. All by myself ... there never was a phone, not even running water (and the outhouse was out back up the hill, LOL) The lake was called "Brandy" and I could swim from our dock to a little island, and sit up on the top there and just look out over everything ... it's where my mind still drifts to when things are just a little too hectic in this ol' life ... sigh ... Thanks for my little trip this morning Sharon. I needed that. |

How about the New Jersey Turnpike. Now that's a road I'm glad I don't travel every day. |
