Getaways...

I recently returned from a getaway to San Juan PR, to celebrate my husbands birthday!

Lemme tell ya. I think I found my 2nd home. I've never considered myself a "beach" person, but I may have had a change of heart. The weather was perfect, bright sunshine, nice breeze and great food.

I enjoyed every part of Puerto Rico, except for the traffic heading down to old San Juan. But, it was somewhat of a fun experience, but not one I'd like to repeat anytime soon. I think next time I'll just stay on the beach :)


We went snorkeling, which was a first for me. It was a great experience and if you've never snorkeled I highly recommend trying it!  It was just a peaceful experience. Alone out in the ocean, swimming with the fish and just hearing yourself breathing. Very relaxing!

Well, the trip is over and I'm back in the 'real world', but at least I still have my memories that I will think on when I need to find my 'happy place'!

Blessings!

1Chronicles 29:11 Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all.

If I Had Wings, I'd Fly Away

Have you ever just wanted to chuck a few items in a bag and leave? I mean, sell off all your possessions,  go away to a deserted island, grab a hammock and the beverage of your choice and listen to the waves.

Take a moment and just think about it....Ahhhh.... Such loveliness

But Alas, we cannot. We must stay, work and persevere towards our goals. It is a time for everything. But what if you were handed 300 million dollars!  What would you do? Have fun thinking about it...not the obvious, give to people, help the ministry, feed the hungry, help the elderly.

What outrageous thing would you do? LOL!!

A) Would you quit your job but still show up everyday dressed in shorts, flip-flops and a tiki shirt and remind your coworkers that you no longer needed to work Neener, Neener!

B) Just disappear from civilization, change your name & acquire a new Jamaican accent? "No, Mon...I tain't nevah hear'd of no Beth, mon."

C) Go on a gnome shopping spree and fill every crevice of your front lawn with your bounty?

I would probably go on a world wide chocolate truffle tasting binge! Mmm chocolate...

Blessings!

Psalms 126:2 Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
