Good morning, to you all! How is everyone? I am doing so well! Checking in from Myrtle Beach, SC and loving every second of it. I don't care what we do the whole vacation, I just love be able to relax and sit, listen, and look at the ocean!

What is everyone up to today? Well, you know what I will be doing! :lol: DS and I have been up since 6 or so. DH and EA are still sleeping. I will let them sleep until whenever. That drive down is a killer, so I figure let them get caught up. I am on my second cup of coffee, about to soon start my third, plus there is a Starbucks at our resort, so I am good to go!

The weather was horrible on the drive down - it rained pretty much the whole way. Once we got here, it was supposed to clear up, but it really never did. It actually thunderstormed, with some minor flooding. It got scary looking out. As the day went on, it rained off and on the whole day, so we just ordered in a pizza and got adjusted for the night. We will do fun things the rest of the week. I know we will be hitting all of their pools today and they have a little waterpark for the kids, so they want to do that too.

Well, I am off to read some of the boards. I will talk to you guys later! Hope you all have a wonderful day! It's warming up here nice and the sun is peaking through the clouds! God Bless and keep smiling!

Have a great time!!!

It's okay. I probably would have been up soon anyway. I love mornings at the beach, so, it was nice.

I'm sorry to hear this, coach. I know too well how a lovable, loving, big ol' dog can get in your heart. Last month was two years for me, and I still miss my old friend.

Prayers going out to you and your buddy.

Praying for you as well, Coach and your doggie. I know,this will be such a hard decision.

My oldest who graduated already has registered to take the LPN state board exam and is patiently waiting for an email so she can go ahead and pick her test date. In the meantime she has appointments with a couple of colleges this month to get information on transitioning from LPN to RN. She is definitely going for it.
My middle one is a little wishy-washy about the whole thing. She just completed a month of clinical work at a nursing home. I think she had a bit of a hard time with some of the things she saw and had to do there. But we are gently encouraging her to keep going. She put so much time and hard work in to it already. And next year will be different. They will be in hospitals and she will get to see and do so much more with the clinical work. She may find her niche next year.
We'll see how it goes. I may be asking you for some advice one of these days!
As far as my youngest goes, she said there is no way she is going in to the medical field. Its definitely not for everyone. She is undecided but she still has some time, she will be a senior next year.

I will be here if you need anything! You're right, the medical field is not for everyone. I love it, but it takes the right person to.

Good for both of your girls. Tell them to keep up the hard work!

Having a lovely but chilly day here in Vermont at only 64f (18c)
We went out for a bit of a drive...

it is very windy, got to watch some people surfing with parachutes, not sure what it is called, but looked cold.
My sister and hubby's 36th anniversary today so went out and bought a big chocolate cake. Would have rather made one, but we are on vacation!
Now we are just laying around the house relaxing, I am catching up here. Going to have hamburgers for supper.
Have a great day all!
