I'm sitting here watching the wind whip through the palm trees outside my hotel room.
The sky is grey, the ocean is choppy and being pushed parallel to the beach almost as fast as the waves are coming in. It's a bit visually disturbing.
I am tagging along with my husband who is here for a conference. I was hoping for a little sun, a chance to capture new images that would be suitable for my etsy shop, to relax and rejuvenate before the kids get out of school for the summer.
So far I'm only missing the sun.

Little Miss Muffet
Early this morning, when the house was quiet and I was checking my email and reading blogs and enjoying my last few moments of peace before waking the kids for school, a very large daddy-long legs slowly dropped from the ceiling above my keyboard until he came to rest between my typing hands.
I decided that peace and quiet was overrated and Miss Muffet had the right idea.
Now the daddy long legs is camped out on the ceiling above my computer again. I sure he is just waiting to drop in again and make me run away screaming.

J and I were talking about age tonight after is bedtime story.
"I'll be 16 on my birthday."
"You'll be 6 on your next birthday." I corrected. "In 10 years you'll be 16."
"How may years will it take for me to be 100?" he asked.
"94 years. How old will I be in 94 years?" I countered.
"Dead." He replied. "You'll be dead."
Well, okay then.

Deprived
About a month ago, the local Chick-fil-A closed for renovations. Not noteworthy, unless your youngest child lives on Chick-fil-A and Taco Bell. And not really a life-changing event considering there are 3 other Chick-fil-As with in 10 miles of my house.
The Chick-fil-A reopened this week. The crowds that have flocked to eat more chicken have been unbelievable. And while the renovation is very nice (they now have what P calls "high tables"), it feels like there are fewer places to sit.
But mostly, I was disappointed that they did not make any changes to the play area. Heck, it would appear that they didn't even CLEAN the play area.
