This week we are at our family's favorite vacation spot...Amelia Island, Florida. It always feels good to be back where we used to live. Vacation has allowed lots of time for thinking...I hadn't even realized how cluttered my mind gets in the day to day life back home. One of my favorite things to do on vacation is find time to escape just for me. This week that has come in the form of 3 mile walks every single morning before anyone else is awake, usually at about 6:30 a.m. The first couple of days I got lost in the beautiful scenery of Florida foliage and the music on my ipod. But after a couple of days I became so lost in my own thoughts that an hour could go by in what seemed like a few minutes! Here are some things I have been thinking about this week...- I love my family. It is so nice to have "us" be the focus of a whole week.
- It is cool to have friends that you can go years without seeing and step right back into conversations and each other's lives.
- I love my job and I miss the people there a TON when I am away.
- I am going to miss Sarah Elizabeth horribly when she moves to Otterbein in August.
- I love the song So This Is Home by Switchfoot.
- I don't challenge myself enough to do hard things.
- In general, TV is pretty boring to me.
- My life is pretty darn sweet and I don't see that often enough.
There was tons more bouncing around in my head, but those are some highlights. And the other good thing? Maybe all those miles of walking helped with all the shrimp I have eaten this week!
