My brain is on vacation, you would think I would have lots of posts with fun happenings. Â Not so much, apparently my brain has decided to take vacation to the extreme. Â I should enjoy it since my brain is usually traveling a hundred to nothing. Â Maybe this is God’s way of saying …. SLOW DOWN and just take a bit of time for you.
A quick sum of my trip so far. Â We drove all night Friday night and got to Florida Saturday morning. Â Jumped in the pool first things (or the kids did anyway). Â Went out with amazing friends from high school Friday night. Â Much needed friend time. Â I am a bit lonely in Arkansas (all my friends are here) so it was wonderful to hang and laugh. Â Though I did have to cut out early because I was EXHAUSTED from the all night drive.
Sunday we had church at my parent’s church (they are pastors) and then went to a Fish Fry (DELISH). We also passed out some pet harnesses to people. Â What is that you ask? Â Check out my Dog’s Story to see. Â Went back to their house and rested for a few minutes then went to the bay to watch the fireworks. Â Monday was filled with looking for a camper. Â And then ate dinner at my cousins restaurant followed by a girls (and Gabriel, my oldest son) night out to see Eclipse. Â While it’s been a bit busy I am not as stressed as usual. Â I think this has something to do with the fact I am at home in Florida.
This is where my heart and soul belong. Â Getting back here permanently before school starts this year is the plan. Â So pray pray pray with me that all goes smoothly. Â Today is Thai Food and hubs is hitting up the job prospects to turn in his resume. Â I just know that it’s time and something is going to happen. Â Ever get those kind of feelings. Â So while I am eating Thai food and enjoying much needed rest time, you all have a wonderful day.

Sometimes it’s wonderful just to take a break from “it” all! ENJOY….
Hope you can live in Florida again if this is where you heart is.
My brother lives there.
As kids we visited Florida every other year on vacation because my Dad’s family was there.
I miss Florida in some ways, but not in others. Mostly miss it now because my only brother lives there and I miss him.
LOL My brain has been on vacation since I had my three year old. For some reasons vacations and trips “back home” tend to leave you not yourself. It’s kinda like when you take a nap because you’re exhausted but then wake up feeling worse and more groggy. LOL 🙂 You’ll get your bloggy inspiration back I’m sure.
