Life is a Beach!

After a pretty good but IBS charged first week at my new job, I had a beautiful, relaxing weekend! Did I tell you that my IBS was sooo bad on Wednesday, that I had to call in sick, on my third day at the new job? Ugh! It's the first time it's happened to me (this bad) since I started working there on March 1st. It hurt so bad, all I could do was lie in bed and alternate between sleeping and reading the entire day. Until 5pm. I really needed this weekend to recharge. Saturday was my favourite kind of summer day - BRIGHT blue skies, hot, and a little windy. Perfect for lounging on the deck, reading a good book. I just finished Middlesex. I think it's the best book I've read in a while. Sunday, we spent almost the entire day at the beach! We had a fried clam platter as big as our heads at l'Aboiteau, on the beach.

It's such a small world...

1 - While floating in the water and doggie paddling, I made a friend whose husband also preferred staying on shore. We started talking and found out that her and her husband have actually worked with my mom up north and know her.

2 - When getting out of the Aboiteau, stuffed with fried clams, we hear a voice "Hey, were you guys in Mexico in February? You were on our flight!" (The woman was sitting with me and Steph,and her husband was sitting a row behind us.)  

Weird! 

Here's to getting the hand of my new job a little better this week, or at least figuring out what the hell I'm doing!! No, honestly, I think that I'm going to like it. I know I'll be fine. I'll just be really happy to have a routine again.

  1. Ugh. I hope you're feeling better this week, both physically, AND with your abilities to do this job (which WE all know, you can!)

    Sometimes, this is such a small world.

    Have a good week!
