How to give your mind a vacation, even if you can't get away

How to give your mind a vacation, even if you can't get away

I am taking my family to Disneyland in exactly "24 sleeps" (that's how I explain it to my 5 year old). My daughter actually has a calendar on the fridge that we use to count down the days. Sometimes she counts backwards or the wrong direction or skips numbers, etc...but there is no question that she, and the whole family, have an immense amount of anticipation building up to this vacation. 

I started preparing for this vacation, about a month ago.
