When life gives you lemons...

... go to the beach. And that's what we did. As for the lemons...


Have you ever had a dream, something you wished for with all your might? Something so important to you that you were willing to wait years for it to happen? And then one day that dream comes true. But instead of being the dream you thought it would be, it turned into your worse nightmare. That's what happened for me yesterday. I spent the evening watching something unfold that I never ever wanted to happen. Instead of the dream I had held on to for so many years, I discovered all my darkest fears and worries had come true.


What has happened is completely out of my control. There's nothing I can do to stop it or change it. So after spending last night alternating from hyperventilating, crying, and feeling as though someone had ripped my heart out, Mike and I decided we needed a dose of the island- sand, surf, and sun.
After a day on the beach, warmed by the sun, soothed by the sound of the surf, and caressed by warm Gulf water, I came home relaxed and for now have put the my dream that turned into a nightmare aside.


I remembered to take my Flip camcorder today and shot some video. The first one is me babbling, but the second on is just the the sight and sound of the surf. Is there anything more relaxing than the sound of the surf lapping at the beach? Oh- and I found some more sea rocks, but no pics of them.






The Surf-
