It's the last night of my very, very long vacation. Here's some random thoughts...I've been more idle in these last 14 days than I've been in years. I'm never idle. I didn't grow up in an idle household. It's been nice, but only a reprieve. I like being busy with the things I like. Let's see...I haven't worn make-up in 14 days and I wear it daily. I've shaved my legs every day and I never do that at home. I pluck my brows daily, it's a habit, and I've only done it twice. I usually read blogs every day, and I haven't. I will when I get back to my 'regular life.' The condo doesn't have a washer or dryer, and I just haven't felt like going up to another floor to do laundry, so I haven't done any. It would take time away from my relaxation. I have worn the same clothes over and over. It's been fine. I've used the same beach towel every day. It's very salty. Have I mentioned I'm a jellybean addict? Every morning I put some jellybeans into a baggie and bring it to the beach. I eat them one by one and am glad that I still have a bit left for the trip home. I brought 2 bags with me, 2 18-oz. bags. That's a good amount of sugar. So bad for you. I really try not to buy them at home. Anyway, I'm going to stop for now and eat a very late dinner. I convinced my sister to stay another night, and we stayed at the pool till 6:30. We actually spent most of our day there on chaise lounges in the shade. It was a windy day and although the sand wasn't blowing, the umbrellas were and the ocean was rough. The pool was delightful.

It sounds like it was the perfect vacation. Only I'd substitute peanut M&Ms for jellybeans.

I'm so glad you had a good time.

It's always nice to get away, but I always enjoy getting back home too.
