Back at the Grindstone

Being back at work sucks!!! I cannot believe how fast our time to FL went!! I am so glad that we went. Josh and I had a blast. We didn't do a damned thing but we had a blast!!! Well, we did go to Sea World and Ron Jon's. Otherwise, Josh went fishing while I slept in. We hung out with my grandparents. That was nice because we don't get to see each other very much. They have so many stories to tell. Josh came home with some fish, one he caught and 3 from their freezer. I will write more later.......

Bon Voyage

I am off to Florida. Tomorrow EARLY morning we head to the Sunshine State. 24 hours from now we will be on the plane en route. We will be gone to Florida for 5 days to visit my grandparents. I cannot wait because I haven't spent any quality time with my Grandparents since I went down 2.5 yrs ago. It is really hard when people that you love live so far away.

So the plan as of now is to hang out with them until Saturday. We are then heading up to Sea World as we all know how much Josh adores animals. I swear that man should have been a vet. We thought that we would want to get away by Saturday. That we should go and do that.

The weather is going to be beautiful while we are there. Sunny and 80's. Not that I am a big fan of the 80's but it will be nice. I will just have to stay hydrated. Saturday may be the only day that I will have issues with heat. The forecast is 81 and partly cloudy. So I should be alright. Josh knows what to about it. He knows how to put up with crabby hot Jessica. She drinks a lot of water and pees every 5 minutes.

I hope that you have a good weekend. See ya Tuesday with a report!!!

Comments

Since I have joined blogger they have made a few changes. One of them being the comment section. Previously you had to be a member to leave comments on a blog. Since then they have changed that. So due to that and an unhappiness with the performance of Haloscan I removed the Haloscan comment feature from my blog. Yes I did lose all the previous comments but, I think I will be happier with the blogger comments than haloscan!!

Another Year Older

Today is the day of my birth. 26 years ago today my mother gave me the miracle of life. Having just helped a friend through labor I have a new found respect for my mother. If course I will never fully understand until I go through it myself.

We went to the Nitty Gritty for supper tonight. Anyone around Madison knows that is the birthday bar. When you go in on your birthday you get a free mug and a free beer or soda all night. So we ate our gritty burgers and drank our beers. Now we are home to celebrate by spending the night together. That is the best gift that Josh could ever give me. I am so happy that he a part of my life. I am forever thankful!!

As my co-worker so genuinely pointed out I am now closer to 30 than 20. Some days I cannot imagine that. I know age is just a number, but is it? I sometimes feel as old as the trees and wonder "Wow, I already feel old, how can I keep getting older?" and "I am so impatient about my life how can I stand the suspense of the next 50 years?" Sometimes I just wish I was at the end to know how it all went. Life is like a good book. You cannot wait to see what is on the next page, but you have to read the page you are on to understand further. I know when I am reading a good book I cannot put it down. I have to get through it because the suspense is killing me. I just have to remind myself one page at a time. The story will unfold before my eyes. Patience is not one of my strong points. I guess I will have to work on that......
