On the way back from our trip to Orlando, we decided to make a pit stop in South Carolina. My husband booked us a beautiful suite on Hilton Head Island…what a magnificent view, and I also got an incredible hot stone massage while at the resort….something my body desperately needed. Here are a few of [...]
I’ve been booking our vacations and travel this week. I’m excited to start the process, because we’ve had it planned out for a bit. I finally got to dig in and pull all the details together. I have a couple of runs this year down in Florida, so I’m excited to combine a couple of [...]
Here I am in all my glory. While I’m smiling- and yes I had a good time, notice that I’m wearing a jacket. BOOOO! It was mid 60′s that day, and not my ideal mid 70′s, though we did get a few of those days in there too! Honestly, it was fabulous. A sinus infection [...]
I’m heading out on a Disney vacation with my son today. I’m now down 19 pounds, and have held steady here for a few days. I’m nervous to go a full week without my veggie stir fries, or my shakes for confidence to keep me going. This is a good thing though, because it allows [...]
My son and I head back down to Florida in a couple of weeks. This crappy, rainy weather in NJ makes me all the itchier to get there. We’ve been doing an annual Thanksgiving trip the last few years. I find the more and more I go south – the more and more it “feels [...]
What do you say when you see your first love? When I was a little girl, about 6 years old, I remember going to Sears and picking out a stuffed Pooh Bear. It played music…you wound the key in the back, and it played “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”. I slept with that silly bear for [...]
I just wanted to share my view. It’s lovely, and is just a standard view here, but how is this even standard when you’re from Jersey? LOL Lovely, lovely, lovely. A spontaneous trip came up, and here I am. I’ll be home shortly, and back to life, but sometimes those unexpected and unplanned moments offer [...]
Watch the tram car please….please watch the tram….We spend the weekend down in Wildwood, and were heading to Curly’s for a quick bite to eat. We hopped onto the tram, and rode the path – picking up and dropping off other passengers along the way. Right at about 26th St, the front car goes hard [...]
I’m spending the weekend down the shore with my son. I remember when I wasn’t “connected” when I go on vacation, but anymore – it’s become the norm to have an ipod, laptop or something to get you online. The traffic coming down wasn’t too bad 80% of the way, but at some points just [...]
This year’s summer vacation trip with my son brought us back to Florida. Tomorrow we leave for home, and wrap up a 2+ week vacation. It’s been fun, but being away from home for 2 weeks, you start to miss your "comforts of home"…one of the things I miss is cooking, and I’m not some [...]
