I'm back, and I'm off!

So, I'm back.  Kinda.  I feel like writing a blog post, so here I am trying to figure out what it is that I want to say.  I'm not sure really.  Let's find out together what comes out of this little head of mine...

I should be vacuuming my basement at the moment, the vacuum has been sitting out all day waiting for me.  She's very patient.  I filled her up twice already this afternoon with the upstairs filth, but the basement is crying out to be as clean as it's counterpart.

I'm vacuuming (and cleaning all the bathrooms, sheets, shiny things, dusty things, laundry and dishes) because my dear friend is moving in for the weekend.  She and her family have offered to stay and house/kid/dog sit while my hubby and I go off to Fort Lauderdale!  Yipee!!!  I am so excited that I just can't not (I know) stop cleaning to tell you all about it. :)

I have everything packed and ready to go, including the shorts I borrowed from my fav homey due to the fact that mine no longer fit me...*ahem..........more on that later.  All I have left to do, aside from vacuuming the blasted basement, is my nails.  Yup, gotta have fresh "looks like she had a pedicure" nails when you go to the beach.  Only, I'm gonna do them myself.  Pedicures only come once or twice a year around here.

I'm mostly excited to be doing this:

  

Doesn't this look heavenly?!

I'm pretty sure I'll post pics of my journey in FL.  I have spring fever SO bad.  I need me some sun, some waves, a pool boy bringing me drinks and cool lemon scented towels (that totally happened during this trip in Hawaii!) and a few days alone with my super sexy man!  

P.S.  I'm so looking forward to the cranberry juice on the airplane!   I love me an in-flight cranberry juice...even if it's a red eye.
