Words Mean Things

Consider the following labels for ways one can spend time:

Vacation.

Holiday.

Family visit.

Their meanings overlap but are not identical. 

I am currently experiencing at least one of them. By the time I get home, I will have cycled through all three, individually and all together, and no doubt all possible combinations of any two. 

While I'm away, I plan to do loads of nothing, though I am taking notebooks (of course) (yes, plural) and my sister has assured me she will share art supplies. Sort of an R&R Boot Camp. 

Once I go, I'll be happy about it. And also happy once I'm back home.
