I’m back from Florida and I had an awesome time! I shopped at Dillard’s, Beall’s, farmer’s markets, and multiple Goodwills. My cousin was pissed that she forgot to wear her FitBit to clock just how many miles we shopped…and danced. Yes. Danced. We drank waaay too many margaritas and danced like no one was watching. Oh, how I wish they weren’t.
While I was there, I wrote a loving postcard to my children, and I want to share it with you:
Dear Kids
I love you very much
I can’t wait to see you again because leaving you is still hard and
kinda sad.
The idea of coming home to routine & early morning chores, well that’s
a wonderful feeling!
Laying around here all day with nothing to do is
no good for me as it’s extremely boring and kills my brain cells.
Watching Dora the Explorer for the billionth time with you is
my idea of fun!
Because peacefully drinking margaritas all day is
a little overrated.
But vacationing with kids is
the absolute best!
I miss you, you’re
dear kids
Now read it from the bottom up.
Anywhoo, this is going to really piss some of you off…we’re leaving for a 7 day cruise! Don’t worry, we’re taking the kids this time. Though they seem a little ungrateful with their scrunched up faces asking questions like “What’s the internet speed while in International waters?” and “Do they have a McDonald’s?”
I may or may not have the ability to post while I’m gone, I’m clueless, we’ve never cruised before. And honestly, we may never cruise again- Collin’s worried about the boat sinking (He just read the Titanic. How’s that for timing) and Brian swears that ships are nothing more than floating petri dishes. He went to Costco for his alcohol-based hand sanitizer, so I’m pretty sure our family will be drunk the whole trip from skin absorption.
This better be one damn good cruise!
P.S. Burglars, our house is not empty. Someone will be there taking care of our lovable Mr. Bojangles & Buddy.
