Mama of 2 P's in a Pod

So tomorrow is the first day of December. I have ZERO holiday spirit. I have ZERO spirit for much of anything.  They call this healing. I call it ridiculous. I am so over it. I am so over 2014. But I hate, despise. loathe even, wishing life away. So I am NOT going to say I can't wait for 2015. Because that would make me a hypocrite. I can say this. Medicine is a beautiful thing. WHEN it works. What is not beautiful. Going to a fantastic vacation that took you 4 years to save for, 15 lbs heavier than when you started the school year. Curse you medicine and your stupid changes. Just fix this crap now because RF I am about to make you my bitch. It was hard to enjoy the beach or rides when I felt frumpy and large. I plan on going back to Florida a lot healthier! Tomorrow I am hitting it hard and not only am I going to tackle this stupid 15 EXTRA pounds, I am going to keep going and by this time next year, the only number I will have on my mind is 13.1. I hope to ins...

Cocoa Beach November 2014! These girls love the ocean! Kris & I on the pier... a little tired but super excited! P2, Nannu & I in Melbourne. Clearly silliness runs in the family!

Right now I'm sitting pool side in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. We've been here since last Saturday. It's been a long vacation and some nice time away. We spent some time down in Melbourne, playing on the beach and visiting my Nannu (Grandma). I took a ton of pictures the first day, but did this weird thing the second. I left my phone in the hotel. Partly because it was dead and partly because I wanted to actually be involved in the day. It was a fun feeling. To be free. In fact, we've chosen to not Facebook this trip. One, for the safety of our home, since someone decided to burglarize it not once, but twice right after our fire. And two, because we wanted to truly get away. The only reason we've been on FB is to keep track of a young girl who sadly lost her fight with cancer yesterday. That's a blog for another day. RIP Moe. Right now, I'm sitting pool side at our fourth hotel this trip. First one, KC airport since we had the 5:30am flight last Saturday. S...
