Where does the time go????

I can't believe it has been almost 3 WEEKS since we've been home from Eleuthera!! It feels like just yesterday I made the mad dash at 1 a.m. to pick up Perri for the start of our journey! I had such a great time this year in Eleuthera. We met lots of new people, found the night-life in Eleuthera (yes, nightlife!), and had a relaxing time. Being with Perri for 9 days just reconfirmed what a great friendship we have and how much I truly think of her as my big sis!! She is so much fun to be around and the two of us together....FUGITABOUTIT!!!! LOL


Got lots of attention while there, that was a big confidence booster! Did feel bad though, 'cause people kept asking if Perri was my mom. I SO DON'T think she looks old enough to be my mom. I hope that doesn't deter her from going places with me. I LOVE her youthful spirit and I think she's beautiful! She may not have felt it was a compliment, but on the upside...I would be proud to be her daughter!!
OMG...and who BUT Perri could get our rental that we promised not to "drive in the sand", off the grassy cliff that I managed to wedge us on with the back rear tire completely off the ground and the front bumper nearly buried in sand!! She told me to MOVE! and she floored that bad-boy - door open and all! The car lurched forward, sand went flying, the was door swinging...but she got it out of the hole I managed to get us in. The two of us sat there laughing so hard, I thought we were going to be our pants!!!

Vacation was great, but now I'm home and back to reality. I'm so cornfused right now...life has thrown some tings at me that I just don't want to deal with. I keep telling Perri I'm having a mid-life crisis, but she assures me I'm too young...(Are you sure???) 'Cause I really think I want to go buy a two-seater and drive off into the sunset...

Maybe not that drastic...but I am just not sure about alot of things. I'm torn between being in school and being at home, being at work and being at home, being in a relationship and not being in one, Oye Vay!! It's enough to drive a person crazy.

I didn't call home much while I was in Eleuthera and it didn't really bother me...not sure if that is a good or bad thing. The house was not as bad as I expected, but certainly not the way it was when I left. Lauren had terrible allergies while I was gone, that luckily mom and dad took care of. Thank goodness they are so close!!

I'm just about finished with this semester. Managed to get an A in English, Student Development and Trial Practice thus far. Still awaiting my Philosophy grade...fingers crossed for a A!

Counting down the days

What a week this has been! I did make good on my promise to clean the house...spent the entire weekend doing it! Needless to say I have been the "you better keep the house clean" nazi all week. I got my hair cut, not sure about that...I think I like it. I weighed in...am down 20 lbs!!! Very excited about that :-) Except for the fact that I have to safety pin my work pants so they don't fall down...guess I will need to go shopping at some point. Work has been so so crazy!!
Finally closed the big deal we have been working on!!

I'm counting down the days to Eleuthera...18 to go. What should I pack? Capris, shorts, swimsuits, how many of each....oh man, packing is the MOST stressful part of vacation. OMG...I haven't been tanning nearly as much as I did last year, hope I don't burn. Guess I better call sometime next week to confirm our arrival at the airport...don't want to walk from GHB to Rainbow Bay. So much to do and so little time....

Holy Hell...I almost forgot my most important thing this week...my academic renewal was granted so I will graduate Summa Cum Laude!!! I am beyond happy about that...hopefully I will have all my special peeps at graduation next May...(when we get back from Eleuthera of course! OR before we go...lol)
