Tracy Helps You’s Thankful Thoughts for Today ~ 11/2/14

November 2, 2014 ~ November 2, 2014 ~ Today I am thankful for sunny days. Over the years, I have discovered that I am somehow much happier and in a better mood when the sun is shining. Even if the temperature is only in the mid 40’s … I think sunny is always better than grey and cloudy.
Every Autumn, around the time we change the clocks, I always feel like it really affects me when it gets dark before dinner time. I don’t know if I would call it depressed, but I do feel “down in the dumps” and tired more often.
Some people suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). I don’t think I have it, but I think I can understand (in my own small way) how they are feeling.
If I’m in a bad mood or having a bad day, I like to try to go for a walk out in the sunshine … it always makes me feel better. I’m sure getting exercise and fresh air plays a big part, but I like to attribute my improved state of mind to the sunshine 

I’m Dreaming of a Warm, Sunny Spring Break Beach Vacation

It’s the middle of February 2014 ~ time is flying by fast … but not fast enough for those of us who are getting tired of winter. Yes, I’m still working on my early kitchen spring cleaning project, but a girl can dream, can’t she?

I’m sitting at my desk, watching the snow fall outside my office window, while I’m watching a slide show of my last warm sunny vacation to the Bahamas for my anniversary last year. We took a cruise on NCL … it was wonderful. We had so much fun ~ great food, live shows, numerous choices for entertainment, fun excursions, plenty of free time for relaxing on deck ~ I really ♥ cruising!

This greeted us as we boarded our cruise ship, the Norwegian Sky.

Alas, we aren’t taking a spring break trip this year … but I’d love to help you plan yours. Where would you like to go? Close by or far away? With kids or without? Lounging on a beach or packed with action and adventure? What’s your dream vacation look like? Share your ideas of your dream vacation in the comments below 🙂

I have decades of experience working in the travel industry … at times I really miss it. I’d love to work with you to find the perfect vacation for your family. BTW, I can also take care of your pets for you while you’re away … such a deal 🙂

Tracy Helps You’s Thankful Thoughts for Today ~ 11-19-13

November 19 ~ Today I am thankful for the sky. I’ve always been fascinated with the sky … it has so many different characteristics, displaying a multitude of colors … many varying shades of blue, from bright vibrant blue with puffy white clouds on a sunny day to dark navy blue on a star studded night. It’s grey and threatening on a stormy day. The glorious color palette is awe-inspiring at both sunrise and sunset. So many different types and shapes of clouds … and lets not forget about rainbows! Oh, and the sun and the moon … one of my favorite things is to see the sun glistening on water – or – dappling through the trees. I love how bright it is when a full moon is shining down on a freshly fallen snow !
