Yes, yes I have been slacking a little at work. It happens. But the good news is, I actually have a gen-u-ine vaca planned in a couple of weeks. I'm pretty excited about it, though I'm really bad that Ann won't be there. Helen has a condo on the beach in Litchfield(?) South Caroliiiina for three days in mid-March. I'm going to fly out to D.C. on March 8. Allie and I will do a fair number of touristy things (we already have tickets to the Washington Monument!!), and enjoy a lovely birthday dinner with her friends. This will be the first time in ... 30 years maybe? ... that I will have spent Allie's birthday with her.
Someday after the weekend, Monday or Tuesday, after we've had our fill of D.C. sightseeing, we'll drive on down to South Caroliiiina and meet Helen at her house. We'll spend a day or two there before heading out to the beach. Yay! The beach. I do love the ocean. And I've never been on the east coast, unless the Gulf of Mexico counts, and I really don't think it does.
I'm excited to see Hexen's house, as well. I hear she's done many cute things to it. She's become quite the little handyman since becoming a home owner. Her friend Ray even gave her her own pair of overalls with her name on them to wear while doing home improvement. Hee hee.
After relaxing on the beach and eating seafood (ha ha - just kidding), Al and I will head back up the coast to D.C., where I'll fly out of to return home. I'll be gone 12 days in total. That's a pretty decent trip. Hopefully it will do something to rejuvenate the ol' work horse.
I'm sad Ann won't be there, though. It was a originally supposed to be a seester's weekend, but the beeg seester can't come. Sad face. We will miss her.
If anyone has any suggestions of places to see while in D.C., please share! So much to choose from, not a lot of time, so I want to see the really cool stuff.
Meanwhile, I'm daydreaming of Atlantic waves crashing into my happy toes....
