I’m SO ready for this weekend to hurry up and get here, and for me, that will happen in T minus 88 minutes.  The countdown has begun and my toes are itching for some surf, sun and sand.  I haven’t hit the water since I’ve been in this state, and I have to say that, IT’s TIME! 

I’m from Western Washington State, home of the ocean in the sky.  It rains there 9 months out of the year, we live right next to the water, meaning the Puget Sound, and a hop, skip and a jump from the good ole Pacific Ocean.  Can’t go wrong, water everywhere and greenery abounds…..  NC is great, I like it, the thunder/lightning storms are cool, but we’re going through an extended DROUGHT - not my forte.  I’m not used to a lack of water or water restrictions.  That’s just abnormal in my world.  I’m not used to driving an hour to the “lake” which is an accumulation of a river, or 3 to 4 hours to the “beach” which is not called the ocean on this part of the country…lol.  It’s okay - cultural differences, I get it.

These last few weeks have been crazy hectic at work, my good bud got to go surf and sand it up and I felt the pangs of jealousy eating out my insides.  I’m so incredibly ready for this - physically and mentally.  Let’s go already.  Only 79 more minutes at work and then the movement begins.  Drive to the house, grab the kid and clothes, meet up with co-vacationers, and make the drive.  That will be the worst of it, but we will survive.  Hotel has been reserved and fun is waiting to be had.  Ahhhhh, happy Friday to you all - gotta bust arse some more around these parts.  Ciao!
