It was. I would have loved more time at the beach, and would have stayed if it were just a little rainy, but the sky was almost black coming across and it was obvious it would be a big storm. That's OK, I plan on us going there lots this summer.sounds like a great day Holly
Heading to bed early, all the driving wore me out, but it sure was a fun day! 
I only have a few minutes...
Hope everyone who is feeling ill feels better soon
So many of you have very exciting travel plans
Marilyn, are you feeling better? I'm hoping you are feeling stronger every day...but getting pampered just a little still
I had the weekend off and it was great sunny warm weather
Today I went to work and by noon the skies opened up and it poured...but it also thundered and lightning and the winds were something elseWe had water pouring in our store at doors and through the ceiling. Quite a mess. The parking lot was flooded. At home, my house is dry inside but I don't think all of my newly planted flowers are going to make it
In some areas of the city they got tons of hail...so at least I missed that! We are still under a storm watch, next system is due to arrive in a couple of hours.
Michelle, didn't you have a hail storm last year? I seem to remember you posting pics of hail in your flower boxes?
Take care everyone.
If I was working I would be back next week i think, so am presuming I have to be careful till then, and still with heavy lifting for a while. Still some pain like I was suffering before, not gallbladder related, so I hope that settles or I will have to go see about that.
Sad news on my Navy Seal nephew. He washed out of the program - he came home for the weekend (I think to get some mama love) I haven't gotten the whole story - but I'm sure it sucks to be Taylor right now. Something about his whole crew messed up and he took a fall for it
I was understanding for a while, but now it's just B.S. It does bother me, I have to admit I was pretty sad for a while, he's so fun to be around, and he really did act interested, but he's now just one fish out there in the sea where plenty more are swimming around ready to be caught.
I'M GOING TO ORLANDO!!!!!! 
(and then Houston...)
Almost packed... Mom and I are discussing whether or not I can fit everything in one suitcase...
Good news... she has NOT yet started cleaning in strange places... I guess she thinks that the neighbors already know what the house looks like and if by some chance they have to break in...

Make sure you get plenty of fresh air Shannon. Neither of those two fumes are good for you.
I asked John if he wanted a spa day....I told him they even have chocolate massages. He chose to skip it, but said that we can go into the restaurants at the Hershey Hotels and have drinks. So we might do some bar hopping looking for chocolate drinks.
We had a nice day - went to the boardwalk in Santa Cruz got the kids annual passes - bummer thing is with we can't attend the Free Friday bands because the kids have play practice all summer

Sorry to hear about Taylor though 
Sending prayers and hugs.I was understanding for a while, but now it's just B.S.

One of these days your prince will arrive So we went to South Haven, the storms held off, got about an hour and a half into the drive and it started raining, was pouring by the time we reached our destination. We got there a half hour before sail time, and the captain called it off & told us to come back to try for the next sail 2 hours after that one. The rain stopped, so we headed to the beach. We had fun for about an hour until the next storm started rolling in from across the lake (Chicago), the sky and water turned amazing colors, so we watched it get darker until the wind picked up, and I knew that meant the rain would start in minutes, so I rushed Tyler out, we managed to get changed and into our car as the first raindrops fell. We watched the storm for a bit, then I drove around showing him all the places and things from my childhood, along with stories. He said "Wow, this place really has a lot of history!"
Worked great! You certainly made the best of the weather. Glad you were able to salvage the weekend despite the rain!
