I need a break.

I realized that I haven’t had a break since working. The closest thing I’ve had was a 5-day road trip with Ruy around 4 years ago. I think I deserve another one.

I don’t need a fancy schmanzy Outer Banks vacation. I just want peace and quiet…and no bills. =) Yup that would be absolutely perfect for me. I’m seriously considering taking a 2 week break sometime in the future. I still need to weigh the pros and cons though…that 10 day break if converted to cash can buy me two more of my new phones….hmmm money or sanity? What will I choose?

This weekend was a weekend spent with our extended families.

Saturday was for grocery and staying at home. Dinner was with my family to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday.

Sunday was spent in Duty Free cause my mother-in-law just arrived from a speaking engagement in a university somewhere in Asia and she wanted to shop in Duty Free.  This was followed by dinner in Dampa (yey!) where Andrea decided it would be fun to get cheesy…

I love this picture for several reasons. First…she’s smiling! Next I have a picture when I was 2 and I looked exactly like this!! In that picture though I had bangs and I was sitting on my potty but everything else from the tilt of the head to the sparkling eyes to the cheekbones and of course the smile…perfect match!

I AM THE MOTHER!
