Sometimes people do nothing on a vacation. It's a time to refresh. Except for the travel to/from the location, they will only eat, watch TV, read, sleep. Things that can be done at home, during a stay-cation.
Good counter argument!
Oh I don't know. I've put some nice facilities in my back yard. I'm trying to convince the spouse we could use a pool. But to no avail yet. I'm also still using the Weber as my smoker. I'd like one of those set it and forget it expensive pellet ones. But the pool comes first. It won't be a staycation until I get my pool!!!I agree. A staycation is also not just staying home; you need to do vacation-type activities. I have a friend who keeps joking about her 5-month staycation. It's not a staycation when the only place you go is Publix and your back yard. I know I should be glad she's in good spirits about everything but it still gets on my nerves every time she says it.
Not if you're there because a tornado destroyed your house.If you are in a hotel or vacation home, even in your own city - that's a vacation.
I guess you're right; sometimes people use vacation time to relax. This particular friend of mine has been using the time to deep clean her house, power wash her driveway, go through everyone in the family's clothes and weed out stuff for Goodwill, clean the carpets, flip the mattresses, and untold other household chores. But maybe she finds this relaxing!
I had big plans when this all started to catch up on my scrapbooks. Well, they're still sitting there - not done.
Sure, if you stay home and do day trips.
No! No exceptions! Just agree with me!
I’ll say it.
