What to write?

Oh my, this poor neglected blog. Things have, as usual, been crazy and I’ve not kept up here online. So where to start? Some of you may have noticed that the number under my photo has changed, and that you now reach me through the dispatchers. This was a change I made after talking to Ms Ally and it has been a really positive one! I’ve met so many new callers that I might never have spoken with, and I’ve tried to vary and expand my hours so that I can continue meeting more people! I know I haven’t been in chat as much, and I miss that. We have such a fun group of people, you really can never tell what might happen in our chat rooms! Recently, I met a little creature who calls himself button, because he is so insignificant, such a clever nickname!

We’re going to the beach!! YAY!! I can’t wait to go play in the sun with Ms Ally and Ms Trish and all the other ladies I spend so much time chatting with online and never seeing. Allow me to share with you Ms Tara’s idea of our perfect beach vacation. Sleep late, wander out for a ligh breakfast/early lunch around 10am. Sit out on the deck with a cold drink and a book, chatting with whomever is around. Going down to the water and swimming for a couple of hours, then coming back to the house for another cold drink or two, maybe swimming again before showering off the salt and taking a late afternoon nap. Reading a while before leisurely getting up and dressed to go out for drinks and dinner with everyone – or having it right there at the house. More sitting on the deck and talking into the wee hours before going to bed. Two words, people. HEA-VEN. 

Lazy? No doubt. But I’m not one of those action packed vacation nuts, kidlets. If the opportunity for a little adventure comes up, I’m all for it. But I want to come home free of worry and strife and raring to grab those phones again. So I’m going to read and sleep and swim and listen to the water and talk to my friends and enjoy many adult beverages.

Things I must bring with me: I’m buying a pay as you go cell phone so that I’ll be in touch on the road. A stack of books. ( HINT:There are many books on my wishlist. They would make an excellent way to wish me well on my vacation, LOL!!) Lots of sunscreen so I don’t become Lobstergirl again. Hmm, I plan to EAT lobster and shrim…water chicken, tonyd:) CDs and maybe a nice long unabridged audiobook. My digital camera, for those wild pix you WISH you could see!!

Can you all think of anything else I’ll need? Other than a few stowaway cabana pets, of course:)

Hugs,
Miss Tara
