Myrtle Beach trip

Last week we got a email from someone from work saying that they were sending a empty plane to Myrtle Beach on Saturday. They were repositioning a plane there. Asked if anyone was interested to let them know. We would leave Saturday around noonish and come back Sunday evening around 6pm. We could bring someone if we like. I was so shocked as they have never done that before. I signed Cory and I up right away. But I was unsure if I wanted to actually go. It was Thursday evening we got the email and it was Saturday we were leaving. I was really unsure. Cory was all on board with the whole idea. We just had to find a hotel room and I was having trouble finding one as they were all booked up. I really didn't know if I was going to go at all. Even when I woke up Saturday morning I was still unsure. It was pouring Saturday and there was lightning. By the time I got there I figured I might as well go. I must say I had the best time! It was great. We stayed in a condo with a few other people. We ate out a a few different places and went to Broadway on the Beach. The Sunday we enjoyed the ocean. It was the best trip by far. I guess I am just not that spontaneous as I thought. I am glad I went now. I will definitely go the next time they do this.

Yard work

So Saturday I went over to John and Laura's to hang out by the pool. We stayed there till around 4:30pm. We went home and relaxed the rest of the night. Boy my throat still hurt so bad. When I got up Sunday it still hurt but a little better. I had a lump there that just wouldn't go away. We did our garden crawl and I really didn't see anything I wanted. I got my friend Leslie some mums but that was it. Cory and I decided to check out stuff for the house. What a long day shopping. We went everywhere looking at mailboxes and numbers for the house and a outside lamp. I did find a new store I love and its called Aco. It has so many gardening stuff in there. It was a pretty cool store. I will be putting that store into my rotation. I found a mailbox there and we got some stuff for the yard. We we out shopping so long that we didn't start grilling out till late so we didn't eat till very late. I think that last thing I am going to do to the outside of the house is paint the piece above our door. After I do that then I am willing to put a picture of our house up on the Internet. I cant wait to show everyone the radical change from when I started. I feel so proud of myself for doing it myself and my yard and how great it looks. It really is therapeutic. I decided that I am painting in two weeks. My friend Leslie is going to help me. That will make a huge difference!

Work woes

I have had such a bad week at work. We have been short handed since we have people out on vacation in different departments. All of us are stressed. Plus one of my employee's is leaving. He was offered a open position in the police academy. So happy for him. I can honestly say I was thrilled last night when I left work. I have been working late all week so I am so tired. On top of that I have a sore throat. I cannot swallow at all. I am up and not feeling like doing anything. but laying in bed all day! I refuse to have my weekend cut short so I will be getting up soon and going over to John and Laura's to hang out by the pool till 4pm. Then come home and relax and watch a movie and go to bed.
