As of 4:30 yesterday afternoon, I am officially on
vacation!
Which means my brain is empty.
I don’t really have too much motivation to write anything
right now. We’re pretty much cleaning, packing and running errands all day
today.
So. Exciting.
I would rather nap and sleep and nap again.
Why is it that the day before you are officially on
vacation, it seems like the world falls apart?
Yesterday was my most chaotic day at work ever. 60+ miles
put on my car between six visits, two of which were to the same patient.
So at 4:30, I turned off my work phone, turned in my
paperwork that is due while I’m gone, and pretty much skipped out of the office.
Matt and I celebrated the start of our vaca by going to Outback for dinner, my current
paleo restaurant of choice.
It’s amazing how fabulous a regular little steak and
salad tastes after not being able to find a time to stop and have lunch earlier
in the day.
We’re leaving for Miami tomorrow since our flight to St.
Lucia is fairly early on Monday. I’ve heard absolute horror stories about
flying out of MIA, so we’re going down early just to make sure we have plenty
of time to park and find our gate.
Plus, you all know Miami terrifies me. I’m just so not cool enough for that city. I
think you need to be a Victoria’s Secret model just to get into half the
restaurants. Or walk on the streets. Or breathe the air.
Our hotel is only 0.5 miles from the airport, so I can
pretty much stay in my little cocoon of safety without venturing out too much.
The hotel has restaurants, a pool and a fitness center, so I really don’t need
much else.
You know what’s pretty cool though?
Our subdivision – which was unfinished when we bought our
house last year – is being finished by another developer who came in and bought
the remaining empty lots. We love this developer and actually looked at a
couple of their homes when we were in the process of buying. They are really
good and will most definitely add to our property values,
Anyway, they have pictures of our neighborhood on their
website and I was looking through them this morning. I know we’re roughly five
miles from the ocean, but these pictures make it look so much closer than that.
So we're leaving our beaches for the beaches of St. Lucia.
I know. We're weird.
Today:
Breakfast: Scrambled egg, bacon, coffee
Lunch: Last
of the leftover roast, pineapple
Dinner: Not sure yet. We’re down to the bottom of the
fridge…might just have an apple and almond butter and call it a night. Like I
said…exciting.
Today I love: My green bottle of Mr. Clean with Gain. It
makes the house smell so clean, even if it’s not.
