The Countdown Has Begun – Vacation to the Beach!

August 6, 2013 by Shelly

 Shelly on the beach

It’s that time again…yes, another “Almost” Wordless Wednesday post! While many of you may wonder why we don’t do ours as wordless and today I am going to tell you why. By not including any text with our Wordless Wednesday posts, it does nothing for our SEO and search results on the major search engines…hence we always do ours as “Almost” wordless Wednesday. Now onto my post!

As some of you know, my husband and I own a vacation condo down at the Jersey Shore and usually go down 4 to 5 times a year to enjoy it. When we are not down there, we rent it out to some of our family & friends since we can’t be down there as often as we would like.

This year we haven’t been down at all because of my total hip replacement surgery and I have been on heavy traveling restrictions. Well, that is all about to change! We are going to take 2 weeks off for vacation and will be leaving the Sunday before Labor Day and going to enjoy a full 14 days off! We are going to spend 10 days down at the condo & then 4 days at home as a staycation to get some of our Fall house projects done.

I am really looking forward to this because I haven’t had a vacation since September of last year! Boo! Last year I had 5 vacations and so far this year, NONE. That really sucks but like I said, that is about to change! Then in October we are going with my cousins to Gettysburg for 4 days and going to tour the battlefields which I haven’t done since I was a kid.

So there you have it…a photograph of me sitting on the beach in front of our condo…and my big bootay is going to sit there again in less than a month!

    Hip replacements take such a long time to recover from. But so glad that you are doing well enough now to go on vacation. I would do anything to be well enough to vacation, especially the beach. It is so lovely and relaxing! So do that, relax and enjoy!

      It took a lot longer time than what they told me. He said 12 to 14 weeks…well, it was April 25th and I am still having some issues…so in my book…it takes many months!

    I am glad that you are finally well enough to travel and enjoy your stay at your condo and relax on the beach later this month. Just be careful and don’t do anything to strain your hip when you are doing the house projects.

      I am going to be careful. The family is going on vacation too. Well sort of…I booked a hotel room for DD, her BF and our grand daughter over in the hotel that sits on the property. They are only going down I believe for 4 days…so it will be a 1/2 family vacay and a 1/2 vacay without them too!
