Fiji - a day by day summarization - Day 5

Up early this morning and taking a walk on the beach with E.  My foot is still bruised from jumping off the porch the other day.  My legs are a mess with bites.  BUT I AM IN FIJI!  Caught a quick snooze before breakfast to get my strength up for the day.  On to the waterfall today!

The waterfall and the trip to it were so great!  It was beautiful.  Paradise. Both E and L climbed the side and jumped off.  Not me.  Even Lucky got to jump off the waterfall with our teenage guide.  The people of Fiji all seem very UN-materialistic.  I wonder if it is a matter of not knowing XYZ exists or if they a humble enough to know that there are more important things in life then just THINGS. We stopped by a mini mart on the way home.  Joy of joy they had Diet coke and Chips.  SNACKS!!!!! I am so happy now.  Since we got home early we decided to go out to dinner tonight.  We went over to the local resort for some Chinese food. Seriously this has been a GREAT food day.  :-)  I told the ladies I could sit there for hours eating, E said take all the time you need get some food into your belly.

Tonight I will get SMART and sleep with the mosquito net down.  Hopefully I will wake up with ALL my blood still in my body.  I don't want to hear how I should have done this from the start.  I'm not the only one that waited this long...I won't name names.

Letter to My Sister

HI Stacy! Hope Heaven is treating you well.  We sure miss you here on earth.  I am sure you are watching us daily, but just in case you are missing the finer details let me fill you in on your kids.  They, just like me, miss you.  We all wish that tomorrow was a day of celebration not a day of remembrance.  But I guess we should celebrate that you are not in pain anymore and that all three of yours children are being well taken care of. Hey did you hear that I am FINALLY getting married?  You would totally like the guy.  He's so great.  He's a big goofball like me but very loyal, caring and helpful.  He treats us all with respect and has only the best intentions when it comes to the kids.  We will rock this parenting thing together.  These kids will have an additional person to fill them up with love. So what have you missed in the last 5 years?  Unfortunately a lot.  It makes me sad sometimes to remember what t...

Because you need me

Today one of my loyal readers told me that he really needs me to update my blog more often.  He was tired of reading that I am "yellow" and he said that he sees me more as a "Peach".  LOL  I said I don't and probably will never own anything peach, come to think of it I don't even own anything yellow. So here are a few things that crossed my mind today. This morning when I got dressed in my room, I really thought my outfit matched.  Then after further consideration and better light at work I decided that I did not match at all. :-) I used to think that getting my nails done was a waste of money, but I really want to go get pedicure. I wish those belly belts that say they will tone your tummy actually worked, I'd wear it daily. If Nacho was a baby, I think he would never learn how to walk because I love him so much I'd carry him everywhere...but since he's a cat he'd scratch my eyes out if I tried. I miss fried foods. Sometimes I thin...

A trip and a 5k a month?

Can it be done? Of course it can...I already know I can run a 5k so I just have to get off my butt and do it. As for the travel well January and February are booked. April, June, July and August are close behind. So 6 out of 12 is not too shabby for it only being January 9th - half way there. So where should I go? Any suggestion?
