I must confess: I
love the beach! I mean who doesn't really? Oh right, my husband. I
love the beach, he sits in the shade. But we both love the pool. We
just spent a week at my in-laws in Panama City Beach, FL. Now before
you get that crunched up 'eww gross' look on your face, I have to
ask, when was the last time you were in PCB? Because in the last 5
years, it has changed A LOT! They now have a shopping center across
from the pier called Pier Park. With a Margaritaville, Dicks Last
Resort, a Tootsies Orchid Lounge and tons of shops and restaurants, a
movie theater and lots for the kids to do. Its just not the same as
it was 10 years ago. It's better, lots of new resorts with tons of
amenities. Ok enough about that.
At the beach, sans husband of course!
With that being said, Eric and I have
different ideas of vacationing, which can make for difficulties when
traveling. He just wants to sit around (in the shade) and do
nothing, and swim every now and then, while I want to go out (in the
sun) and see and do stuff. But somehow after being together for 10
years we've found a way to make it work. The key to marriage is
compromise! We go out and do stuff then sit around and do nothing.
We've somehow made it work where both of us are happy. I love
nothing more than spending lots of time with my hubby. We never seem
to get bored with each other. We got back yesterday from our week
long vacay in PCB, now the post vacation sadness has set in. You
know what I'm talking about, that dreaded feeling of having to go
back to work and household chores. Retirement must feel like a
permanent vacation. Looking forward to those days!
Where ever you go this year, enjoy it
before heading back into the dreaded 'real world'.
Happy Summer!
Wendy
