Vacation update 🏖
I just wanted to pop in and let you know how my first week of vacation has been!
Well let's start at the beginning! We packed up the car last Wednesday evening so we would be ready to go in the morning. I was up at 5am to get myself and my daughter ready to leave by 6am. We got the 4 of us(me, my daughter, my mom & her bf) loaded into the car and off we went! We took turns driving, stopped several times and called it a day around 7pm in Harrisonburg, Virginia. We had dinner at Cracker barrel, which was my first time setting foot in a cracker barrel! After dinner we checked into a nearby hotel, got unloaded and my little pumpkin ready for bed before I headed down to the fitness center for a run on the tread mill to stretch my legs and burn off some energy.
Day 2 in the car was much longer as we wanted to push right through to Florida so we would have to spend another night/day on the road. We made it to the condo where my Uncle & Aunt are staying in Cocoa Beach, Florida just before 10pm. Of course pumpkin woke up and was ready to party so we stayed up for a little visit before we all crashed.
Day 3 : our first day in Florida! 😍 We couldn't get into our condo until the afternoon. So in the morning we wandered over to the shops and picked up a few things, it was rainy so I enjoyed some time reading my book and enjoying the soothigg backdrop of rain! Once we got into the condo we had to head over to Walmart to get groceries and some essentials, hurried back to the condo to unload, then we headed back over to my Aunt & Uncles for a pulled pork dinner! Then it was time to head back to our condo and get ready for bed.
Day 4: Today we did laundry that piled up while on the road the last couple days, we picked up a few things we forgot to get yesterday. I went for a run over to my Aunt & Uncle's and popped into the shops to look around while out.
Day 5: I am definitely getting spoiled with having my mom and her boyfriend on hand to watch my sweet girl! I got to head over to the mainland and check out the local Anytime fitness, and picked up some things at the dollar tree. It was a gorgeous day so we headed down to the beach for the first time! Before my Aunt & Uncle arrived for dinner I packed up my pumpkin and went for a bike ride!
Day 6: Went for a good run today down to the end of the road where my Uncle said I might see some peacocks... Didn't see any peacocks though! We went to the beach again today and spent a little bit longer down there.
Day 7: Today when I got my Aunt was here so my mom & I decided on my Aunts suggestion to leave pumpkin with her and head over to the pharmacy to pick up a few things we are hoping will help with the chest congestion that my sweet girl has developed 🙁
I am seriously enjoying being out of the cold & in the warmth, the change of pace as been extremely relaxing and I can't help but feel grateful everyday that I can work my side gig job from just my phone 📱. I am already trying to think how I am going to get time off from the restaurant next year so I can come down again!
Thank you for reading & I hope you are enjoying your week 🥂
