1. Describe your perfect day: Sleep a little late, get in some morning loving, have a nice breakfast in bed, spend the morning roaming the museums and downtown of St. Petersburg with Jason & Julian, eat lunch at Ceviche’s, read & take an afternoon nap in the park, drive home and drop Juju off with a my in-laws for the night, get my hair and makeup done at a salon, have sushi at Shiki and go see a show or concert at Ruth EckerdHall, go to the beach afterward and look at the moon and listen to the waves, stop for a flight at Barley Mow before heading home .

2. What was something that you were afraid of as a child? Literal skeletons coming out of my closet. Wolves too.

3. What's something you're afraid of today? SHARKS!
4. Would you rather be obsessed with yourself or someone else? Ugh, neither, but if I had to choose, probably someone else.

Home Sweet Home

Sunday, July 22nd~

We're back. The flight home was nice and uneventful... until we hit the Florida coast! We flew into some pretty intense thunderclouds. The lightning was beautiful from our viewpoint, but it was also a little disconcerting. We actually landed ahead of schedule, but then had to sit on the runway for quite sometime as none of the ground crew could come out to help the planes at the gates. We were so happy to see Jason when we finally got off that plane!

Blessings

Mowing with Granpa

Mom and I continued the sorting process at the house. We did a whole closet and the linens and china cabinets. I don't think my grandmother ever thew out a card anyone gave or sent her! It's a very good reminder to me to be careful not to end up with the same habit. My "collector" nature comes to me through genes on both sides. That's a little scary!

In a little bit we'll pick up Jonathan from the airport. He drove Joy and the kids home to Texas. His plane had issues and had to land in Atlanta so he's delayed a bit. We're meeting dad for dinner while we wait.

Grandpa was pretty alert and with it today. He was mainly interested in getting back into bed for a nap, but we stalled him with some Coca Cola.

Back home, God gave us a little blessing. Jason got a very unexpected bonus at work. We've been really tight this month so the timing is amazing.

Saturday Night

from May 26, 2012~

@ Barley Mow

As great as the week has been for Julian... Jason and I definitely needed some grown ups only time! His band had a show Saturday night and my in-laws were down for a Juju sleepover, so we both got to go. He started the evening hitting Long John's and setting up. I started with appetizers, moscato wine and travel stories and photos with girlfriends. We got there not too long after the band started. I got a flight that went from deep Cocoa Beach Oatmeal Stout to North Coast Red Seal to a Widmer Hefeweizen and ended with a Florida Avenue IPA. I love going all over the place when I'm sampling. Lots of people came out so there was never a lack of good conversation. The band did well. Met some of Jason's co-workers. It was just a nice night out!
