Shopaholic in Alabama

You might have noticed, I've been absent for two weeks. Sorry I haven't updated, life has been so busy that I'm having a difficult time keeping up with everything.  Last week, I took some much needed time off work. Did I go somewhere exotic and fun? Absolutely not, I wish! With the DH's unpredictable work schedule, it's almost impossible to plan a "real trip"...so instead, I decided to take a "staycation". After being home for four days, I learned a few things. These are not breaking news or news flashes, but rather I was reminded of stuff I already know!  1. My body needs at least 7 hours of sleep per night. Since going back to work, I've been averaging around 5 or 6 hours per night (at the most). While off work, I got at least 7-8 hours of sleep every night, and felt great! I have now made a commitment to get more sleep.  2. It's really important to see your girlfriends. While on staycation, I had lunch with several girlfriends ...

Happy Tuesday! Hope you're not cold (it was 29 degrees here last night, brrr) and see a little sunshine today. If you could leave tomorrow (or even better, today ) - on a trip to anywhere you wanted - where would it be? With the recent rash of cold weather, most of us are dreaming about tropical getaways. My pick for today's dream vacation is a well known locale - DH and I have been there before, but sad to say "it's been toooo long" - we'd love to go again soon.  Where In The World?  With an average February high of 74 degrees, who else wants to escape to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico? One thing I know for sure - I have the wardrobe ready! :-) What is your dream vacation? Are you also ready to enjoy a little sunshine on your skin, a cool drink in your hand, and the sand between your toes? Sign me up! Have a Terrific Tuesday!
