How I spent my summer vacation....



Only have time for highlights:

Jim caught a huge shark!

Cory got stung by a man o war and we had to call 911 and the beach patrol came riding down the beach ala Baywatch! FYI: vinegar, shaving cream and a tongue depressor are high tech NC remedies....

Rhia caught 4 fish!

John caught a spanish mackeral and cooked it up and ate it.

Barry found the biggest shark's tooth we've ever seen (maybe from Jim's shark? hmmmm)

Flipper-Z has really good margaritas. And food. And ambience.

Emerald Isle is beautiful and sometimes the water really is emerald colored.

My doctor will call in a prescription out of state without an appointment if you are in pain with a stupid back.

The Backus's and Ruhl's are wonderful people.

We had a great time.

Antici...............pation

I have a lottery ticket!!! I've only ever had a lottery ticket twice before and I have to say it's the most exciting thing ever! I gave C the money and he went and got me $10 worth! He got himself one too so our house is just abuzz with planning.

So here's what we are doing when we win:

We will buy 4 houses side by side in Topsail Island, NC oceanfront. Each of us have very different plans. Mine of course, will have a spiritual center attached with a huge yoga deck overlooking the ocean. It'll be all woo woo with soothing colors and a doorbell that rings "Ommmmmmmmm". My husband's will be right next door and will have all kinds of modern wind sculptures and weather devices and many, many dogs. My son's will have a recording studio and he has already decided he's inviting Z & N (the two 11 year olds we do plays with) to come cut a record. R, my daughter, will have a tropical theme with a dolphin mural across the living room wall and a doorbell that plays "aloha--oy". She will have a small theater training school.

We will no longer argue about who's supposed to clean what. We will have a common area that we will meet at that a maid will clean.

I will have a personal trainer, a masseuse, a hair do person and a cook. I will still teach yoga and do my spirit retreats and will do all the things I want to do that I never have time for....

Ahhhh. In just a few hours, my whole life will change!!!! It's just so exciting! We decided to just give our house away with all the contents and the blue car & truck.

Now here's the fun part---we have cast the new play with John Travolta and Leo DeCaprio and all kinds of amazing actors. Our singers will sing on a track and we will film it and I will win the Oscar for best adapted screenplay.

Don't worry--we won't forget you! Free tickets for all!

"cause I got a golden ticket"
