Promised Post

I am going to post all about my vacation, however I am still like a little internet dumb so I am trying to figure out 1. How to insert a link to my flickr photos and 2. How to do a hyperlink to the places that I went.  If you can help me with either of those things these posts will be forthcoming.  Thanks.

Vacationland

Tomorrow starts my official vacation, however for the last couple of days I was sunning myself in sunny Cape May, NJ.  The town is adorable.  The beach days were mostly good.  Chels, Sara G, and I were there for Sunday, it was really windy it rained, but we still found a little bit of time to hit the beach in the afternoon (it was so windy the sand was blowing that's my least favorite thing) I did swim for a hot minute but the surf was pummeling me so I got out pretty quick.  That night we had dinner with Patty and started a 1,000 piece Troll Mania puzzle.  Sara thought it was too ambitious, but Chels and I had faith that we could finish it.  The next day we took Sara to the bus in Atlantic City, and then spent the rest of the afternoon at the beach.  Maloy even got to join us for the evening.  We rode bikes worked on Troll Mania.  We even hit Carney's a jersey shore bar.  You can just imagine, but the drinks were cheap the DJ was playing really bad music and there was really bad dancing.  What else do you need?  Finished off the night by watching Liar, Liar until we all fell asleep.  Day 3 hit the beach again.  This was the most gorgeous day we had.  I finished my book The Last Summer (of You and Me) by Ann Brashares, her first adult novel.  It was a good beach read.  Then we went home and finished TROLL MANIA.  All 1000 pieces.  It was very satisfying.  Right now I am putting off packing and getting everything together that I need for VT and ME.  Oh and big news.  Maloy's sister is having her baby today.  A few weeks early but her water broke this AM and her new niece is on the way.  So today is going to be a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS. I will post pictures of Troll Mania once I get them downloaded.  It's a walk down memory lane.  It's like the Wackness-Trolls from 1994

26 and loving it?

I've been 26 for one day.  In that day I have read Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.  I've gone bowling with Emma, Bean, and Lucien.  I won bowling twice.  I attempted to see Sisterhood 2, but every 12 year old had the same idea.  Not that I'm 12.  I'm 26.  Weird.  Bea got her collar off today.  We will see if it lasts.  Yesterday I altered a shirt for chels, and used the sleeves to make dog toys for Bea and Roscoe.  I ate the most delicious dinner, and went to bed early.  Is that what you are supposed to do on your birthday?  My life has become boring, but in one week I go on vacation.  A real vacation, with hotel rooms and an itinerary.  I've never done that before.  I've never tried to be an adult.  I'll let you know how it works out.  I'm probably too young to be a REAL adult.  I'll let you know.
