Sand between my toes....
Other than sand between my toes and other areas I didn't want it, I had an awesome vacation. <.G.> I've never taken more than a week at a time and I've gotta say, a week and a half is pure indulgence. I went down to Panama City Beach for a couple days to visit relatives, then on over to Seagrove Florida. I met a friend and her family, another family and a friend of ours from Taiwan. We had six adults and five kids. I thought we had the kids outnumbered, but what do I know. Heh.
Hsiu-mei got stung by a jelly fish the first day, so the kids didn't spend a lot of time at the beach. What a waste. I sat down there for hours at a time just reading, dozing and people watching. Did you know that families actually pack everything, although I never saw a kitchen sink, just to spend a day at the beach? Hee! It was so fun watching them all troop down with these carts full of shit! lol Mom's are busy rubbing sun lotion all over the wiggling kids, while dad sets up the beach chairs, beach umbrella and makes sure the cooler is in the shade under the umbrella. It was so soothing just to watch people do their thing. :)
I can't seem to get excited about being back yet, even though business is really good. I am going to get busy with the advertising now, so hopefully it will really pick up once the kids are back in school. I have laundry to do, the grass to mow and a house to clean all before my 11 year old cousin and her mom drag me off to the American Idol concert tonight. :::sigh::: I think it will be cool to see these kids in person, but thousands of screaming 11/12 year olds is not my idea of how to unwind from a vacation. lol Anyway, I'll let ya all know how it went. :)
I hope everyone is doing fine and I am gonna try and catch up as I do a bit of laundry today. :)
