I have had the most stressful, frustrating day. I’m trying to get mom and I packed and ready to go to the beach for 2 weeks with my daughter and sister and every single thing has gone wrong. I try to have an attitude of gratitude generally but it’s seriously lacking today.

I have been to the pool to float. Ice cold and really unpleasant. Will try again when I return home.

Speaking of beaches, I keep seeing shark videos where the sharks are near shore along the panhandle where I’m headed. 3 of them were filmed in the city I’m going to. Yikes! I’m always on the lookout and hyper vigilant about that but will really be on tenterhooks this time.

I hope everyone has a peaceful evening.
