Thursday (1 day before vacay)
Time: 7:00pm- Start packing (uncharactaristiclly so)without a packing list! So not me!
7:10 - Oh crap! Must finish laundry so I can pack more stuff I won't need
7:45 - Dinner arrives, must take AT LEAST 20 minute break
8:15 - Finish packing clothes and shoes only, must rest to watch Grey's Anatomy
8:30 - Gets bored starts to finish art project
9:10 - Ready for bed
9:10:01 - Crap! Sink full of dishes and dishwasher full
10:00 - Finally in bed and house all clean
Today is a different story...I woke up early and met my trainer which I NEVER do. 630am and I do not agree. I've tried to forge a relationship in the past but for whatever reason that time really hates me. So therefore, if we can't get along, I'll just avoid it. I did manage to pack a few more essentials this morning, but I'm pretty tapped out on toiletries so I convinced the hubs we'll just pick those up in Destin. And this is how, ladies and gents, you spend $100 at Walgreens. It's just everything is so shiny and new. Damn marketing ploys! They get me everytime. And I worked in advertising, you would think I would be immune by now.
So now we just have to hit the bank, hit the house and get the last remaining items, say buh-bye to puss cat for a week and hit the road. Hopefully by 7pm I will be relaxing at our half way point and possibly enjoying a fruity adult libation. Last time we stayed at our half way point we walked around the quaint little town and found an awesome Italian Restaurant that had the most amazing scallops I have ever eaten. EVER! They were HUGE! And so tender and so yummy, but unfortunatly due to a down economy said scallops are no more. I was so bummed to hear that I will not be feasting at the Italian restaurant tonight. So mission uno for Destin, find giant delicious scallops! Something about being two days away from all the seafood I can eat just keeps me itching to leave. Plus there's the beach, that's always a perk.
However, vacation will not be all fun and games. I will still most likely be up by 830am because hubs has this unusual ability to wake up early (ie 6am) every where he goes. I simply refuse to get up that early so he does whatever for a couple of hours and once he's run out of options he comes whining to me like a kid on Christmas for me to please, please, please get out of bed. Well I will have to force myself because my trainer is making me work out while I am down there. See I have this little thing called a stair climb in two weeks and after the practice climb I thought I was going to DIE! Climbing 16 flight did not sit well with my lungs. I think they contemplated leaving me for a minute but I convinced them to stay and finished in under 3 minutes! Whew! So my trainers thought is "oh you're staying in a high rise condo. Perfect practice!" So while I am there I have to climb stairs so I can be ready in two weeks to do 39 floors. The upside, maybe I'll come back a few pounds lighter. The downside...I mean really, who wants to work out on vacation....not this girl! So in approximately 24 hours I will be in Destin! Here's to blue skies and not a drop of oil in sight. Cabana boy, bring me a drink!
