17 Days


Back when we booked our vacation we had over 90 days to wait. I'm happy to say that we're finally down to 17!



In preparation for bathing suit time, i've put myself on a somewhat strict diet and have been vigilant about getting to the gym. See picture above for my motivation.


I also started tanning in preparation for the DR sun. I know it's horrible, but I just feel so much better when I'm not pale white.


But back to the gym for a moment...I'm happy to say that i've broken the 3 mile mark (3 times in a row!). I'm psyched and amazed at how it really isn't as hard as I thought. Granted I'm slow, but still. I've also been impressed with how much I'm able to push myself.

Last night for example, I didn't think I'd make it past a mile. Then I pushed myself to 2 and then somehow kept pushing and made it to 3.1. I probably could have gone a little farther, but my body was TIRED! But I'm excited.

I am so ready for a vacation! I haven't been on an official long vacation in about two years and that is way TOO long. Never again! I had time off around the holiday's, but to me taking time off to do nothing is not as redeeming as going somewhere special.

I've actually got another vacation coming up in two months. Crazy, right?
