Aruba, Jamaica oooo I wanna take ya

I work from the luxury of my home. Which isn't bad, its just that my living room, family room, front room, entry way, theater room, and office are all the same room. For those loyal readers out there who aren't yet familiar with my line of work, i work for the worlds largest drapery installation company (at least as far as we know). We fly people all over to install drapes in hotels, hospitals, timeshare condos and even some military barracks. I used to enjoy the life of a traveling draper, but moved up to the head IT guy about 6 months ago.

Well yesterday my boss and I were chatting about the jobs coming up and I mentioned I had never been anywhere cool when i traveled. (We frequently have jobs in Hawaii, and Mexico, Virgin Islands and the nicest spot I've been is Panama City... Florida... in December). He then told me of 2 jobs coming up in Aruba, but he said "you wouldn't want to go there, because you can only work 2 days a week there at the Hotel and you wouldn't make any money". And then he realized that I'm the only one who could still make money the other days of the week because i'm the only one that works from home. So then he was practically begging me to go. He offered to send Erin and I to Aruba for 10 weeks all expenses paid....and I'd only have to work at the Hotel 2 days a week and then my normal workload when i had time... pretty nice eh??

But It would be from mid July to the end of September.... and Erin is still in school then and couldn't go the whole time. And I couldn't go to my brother's wedding in Washington (now the end of August instead of the end of December). So... do I stay or do i go?? This is my chance to live it up on a Caribbean Island ..... and help my company get out of a rut and also guarantee some job security for a while longer.

Here are some pictures i found online to try and help make my decision......

17 miles north of Venezuela

Cacti and exotic looking umbrella things

Water so clear you can see dark spots!!

Natural pool you can snorkel in...

And a natural rock bridge.... And then forever in life I could say i took a ten week vaction in Aruba. Maybe i'd love it so much Erin would move down and we'd start a jet ski rental place and you all could just come down and visit us and stay with us.... Bermuda Bahama come on pretty mama.
