Christmas, weekend and beach thinking
In reverse order.
The Christmas season has officially begun for most, but for some reason my mind seems to remain stuck on a warm, tropical setting. Instead of Christmas shopping this weekend, I’d rather be packing for a several-day stint at the beach for New Years. I can’t get it off my mind, and anxiously await the week before to at least see how the weather’s looking for the New Year.
I’m going to give my best attempt at finishing my Christmas shopping this weekend. I’m sure they’re will be a few extras to get next week, but even getting the majority done will be a huge relief. In the meantime, I’ll catch a few new oceanic documentaries that my love dvr’d recently for our viewing enjoyment. Uh-oh, here comes that tropical feeling creeping ’round again…

I lived in Florida for fifteen years. I moved there from Great Lakes city Toledo, Ohio, where winter is really WINTER! I remember how strange but nice it was to spend my first New Year’s Day in Florida relaxing in a park in the sunshine. Beaches are beautiful, and I miss that part of my Florida life now that I’m landlocked in Dallas, Texas. Ha! Blessings to you…
