Awesome, John!
That sounds
Awesome, John!
That sounds like an amazing three days; + a good reminder, at least for me, to put some fun in our lives whenever possible. One of my husband's fiends, who is a cancer survivor himself, + is married to a cancer survivor sent a message in his Christmas card, to make sure we plan. This is good advice, + it sounds like you planned + executed a fabulous time for you + your family. Thanks so much for sharing this!
p.s. I am totally jealous of your warm weather - it is pretty cold here (outside Toronto), the snow is falling + although it is pretty now, I think we are in for a storm. -

My wife got off work several hours early friday. She said she wanted to do something. It was cold and rainy. I said let's go to the beach. I didn't check the weather report or anything. We stayed at my parents house friday night. They live about an hour from the beach. I checked expedia, orbitz, and priceline. They all had about the same deals. I compared reviews and picked a hotel based on that. We wanted an indoor pool and lazy river. Surprisingly there were dozens of them. I picked the one with the best reviews and just showed up. We showed up at the hotel late sat evening and I made a deal on the spot for $15 less than the cheapest internet offer. It helps that they still had 13 king suites available as did every hotel next to them. -

Thanks for letting us know! We all need to take care of the good days! The hardest thing I have had to learn is to live in the now. I have always waited for a better day. You have shown that now is the better day!
Thanks for seizing the moment.

I am
glad to see you are living life to the fullest. Everyone has been given a life and what YOU decide to do with that gift is YOUR choice.
You can live it to the fullest and enjoy every single minute or **** and moan and hate every minute.
I prefer to stay YOUNG at heart and enjoy every MINUTE that has been given to me. -
