Bobbi, love all the pics! Glad you’re having a nice trip!
Taz glad everything is ok with your son. I prayed. How awful to go through that.
Lynn, congratulations to Lily! That’s so exciting! I love your daily picture, too. I do not carry my SS card. I had it at one time but I have no idea where it is now. Thankfully I know it by heart. I even know my DH’s as we used to have our dogs tattooed with it before there were microchips. We have managed to keep the kids’ cards in a safe place.
It was hard to go back to work this week. I was tired and had a slight head cold, negative again for Covid and wore a mask.
Pea - can't wait to hear about your trip. Sounds like you had a horrible plane ride home!
We had a nice trip with lots of baseball and some R&R at Vero Beach. More driving than I would’ve liked but what can you do. We had a van so space wasn’t a problem. Used an offsite rental place this time and it worked out pretty well aside from the long drive to the resort from MCO. (We had free flights from the Arizona debacle so we flew into there non-stop.) Weather wasn’t bad at all; if anything, we were hot, and sunburned from the games! Only needed a light jacket at night. Two days that it rained it was a little cool, but cleared and warmed up later. DH and DS enjoyed some fishing on the beach, and DH and DD walked the beach in the morning after watching the sunrise. (I made it out once but I’m more of a slow starter in the morning.) The deck to our studio had a small view of the ocean, and we kept our door open at night so we could fall asleep to the sound. I loved having the garage underneath.
We got to explore the resort, the town and some surrounding areas, including the local airport. I met up with a very old friend and that was fun. I had plans to see my niece and her new baby if we went to see the cruise ships, but no one felt like driving again for hours after being on the road for several days for travel and games and such. One of the moms ordered sandwiches for the team and we went to pick them up. What a fiasco! Turns out the order was mistakenly for the next day so we had to buy everything to make sandwiches, but we had an assembly line and had a lot of laughs. It was just like the old days even though we never met these people before! DS did well and, like last year, got invited to play on another national team in a couple of months. Hopefully he can do it but it depends on what’s going on w flight school. He was sore after not pitching much since last summer. (That’s the advantage that teams down there have, they play year round.) I have to download my pictures tomorrow, it’s been busy since I got home. I initially had some technical difficulties with my camera (hate that!) but was able to fix it (DD can figure anything out on youtube, God love her!) and it was fun to be shooting again. We’ll see how they came out.
For the last two days we’ve been talking about what our next adventure is going to be. I like having something in the wings to look forward to, especially when going to work in the winter. We’re supposed to have a storm starting Tuesday. Ugh.
Enjoy the rest of the evening, everyone!
Coming home
