Guess What?!?

I think I miss my kid! Who knew.... Tay has been at camp for 2 weeks and I'm getting kinda lonely. She still has 1 more week at camp, then she's off to visit with her bff for a week. I'd say I'm having a great summer, but in reality she's the one having a ton of fun! I've just been working all the time.

I have decided that I need to find an available single friend. I'm not a single vacation kinda girl. While I can hang by myself many times, I still need someone to have dinner with. Most of my single friends have kid obligations or don't have the freedom with their work to go at the last minute. I'm ready for exotic. I've been looking at many islands in the caribbean and in the med. BUT paying for tay and me to go places gets expensive. I need another adult to split cost.

On the flip side, I have been going out more since tay is gone. Lot's of trivia, movies, happy hours. Fun adult fun. We've also been hanging out on our patios old school style on my street. It's nice to have a great group of neighbors that like to hang with a beer, swim, bbq etc.

Very chill summer with the exception of my hectic work schedule. Hope your summer is chill too!

Aloha!

Well folks it's official. I'm a DVC'er for life. I just bought into the Hawaii property Aulani http://resorts.disney.go.com/aulani-hawaii-resort/gallery. As you can expect, I will be spending all of my future thanksgivings in paradise, mickey style. Maybe I'll try a new season there. I knew there was a reason I've been saving my hawaiian miles all these years. I probably have 4 tickets! yahoo. Taylor is very excited about returning back to hawaii. This property won't open until August 2011, but they are booking starting September 2010.

I need to start really using my points for vacations. I sold some last year to pay for this coming spring break trip. I am at a loss for vacation right now. My summer is packed but I need a release. I am looking and looking but finding no good time to go. I just want a quick beach trip before school starts. For god sakes, I live in california I should be able to get to a beach at some point right!

My kid is off to sleep away camp. They post pictures and she looks like she is having fun. I sent her an email today which the replacement for snail mail nowadays. I'm glad because when she gets back she's got some book reports to do. Fun summer homework.

Happy belated 4th of July to you all.
