We are heading into storm season here in Florida and I'm loving it. Florida thunderstorms always make me think about my youth. It's been a long time since I've lived in Florida and the storms are one thing I'm looking forward to. I'm sure that just might change once I have to start walking to work in the pouring rain but for now I'm simply going to enjoy them.
Seeing that I forgot to blog last week, I'll catch you up on what's been happening since the last post. Last weekend I decided to be a bit adventurous and walked to South Beach. It took about an hour to get there which isn't too bad. The worst part about the walk is the heat but I made sure to be prepared and brought water for my journey. The walk across the Venetian Causeway Bridge was quite pretty. There are a lot of islands along the way that have some pretty amazing houses on them. The bay that day was filled with boaters. During one stretch I saw a bunch of giant lizards that look like dinosaurs sunning themselves on the rocks.
Once I reached South Beach, the first thing I did was make my way to Lincoln Ave to cool off in one of the many shops. After pretending to shop for a little bit, I made my way to the beach where I walked in the cool ocean water. There were a lot of people at the beach and my only regret was that I didn't wear my swimsuit. I spent about 4 hours in South Beach. By the time I was ready to go home I decided to take the bus back. The bus trip took about 15-20 minutes tops. After arriving home I quickly changed into my swimsuit and spent the rest of the day at the pool. It was a perfect ending to a perfect day.
This past weekend was spent at my sister's house. While my sister and brother-in-law were at my nephew's baseball game, I dragged my nieces to Old Navy so I could pick up some tank tops. They helped me pick out which colors and size looked best. :) It's fun having little personal shoppers. My nephew's team won their game so once they got back we all went out to lunch to celebrate. Afterwards, my sister and I did some furniture shopping. We went there to check out these chaise lounges they had but instead of getting one of them I ended up buying a recliner which felt as if I was sitting on a giant puff cloud. I can't wait until this Saturday when the recliner will actually be in my apartment. Watching TV will be so much fun now! Aside from furniture shopping, we also managed to get some movie watching, pool time, and reading done. I'm really enjoying being able to spend time with my sister and her family.
Just where will I end up next is any one's guess.
stay gold & be well
