Outer Banks Dream Vacation!!

I’ve been saying for a while now that I could really use a vacation and after checking out this amazing house in North Carolina I’m in awe. The pictures of this house on the Carolina Designs’ website will truly make you wish you called that place home. I absolutely love the design of the house. It has an old country charm that you don’t find in many rental homes. I love the beautiful wood decor. It’s funny because If I owned a house like that I would use many of the same furniture pieces. The openness of the rooms are my favorite. Who wants to vacation in a cluttered space!

I also love the large pool. I can just imagine unwinding in that pool after the long and hot summer I’ve had. The only bad thing about staying in a place like that would be leaving! I would seriously have to consider moving to North Carolina after that. If I could stay in one of these Outer Banks vacation rentals I would take my mom and my Goddaughter with me. We’ve all had a pretty rough year so far and I couldn’t imagine a better place to relax and regroup right about now.

Last Days Of August

I’m glad August is winding down. It hasn’t been a horrible month, but it sure wasn’t the best. I’m really hoping that September will be better. One thing I’m happy about is the weather. The weather has been gorgeous this past week. August started off hot and miserable and that’s usually how it ends, but this past week has been so mild. I was even able to sleep with just the window open. Niccee!! Hopefully this month will end without anymore hot days.

Besides the weather, I didn’t care much for August because it was stressful in a lot of ways. Work was OK though for a change. I actually got in a few good hours. I’m surprised! Hopefully my good fortune (concerning work, at least) will continue the way it’s been going or even improve. It would be nice to save up enough of money to do something. I may even have my eyes set on some Branson vacation packages. I’ve never been there before, but it sounds a lot better than New Jersey!

Jaded City Girl…

I’ve lived in a large city all my life and I really hate it. Spring and summer are the seasons when I hate living in a large city most of all. It’s miserable dealing with a bunch of hot people with bad attitudes. So as you probably can guess, I’m not at all looking forward to summer time. It hasn’t been too bad yet because we’ve only had a few hot days so far this spring. I’m sure things will get worse soon.

If I could move anywhere in the United States I would probably move to a small city or town in a state like Maryland, Ohio, or Pennsylvania. I like those states because they’re either familiar, or not too far from where I live now. I’d rather pay long distance movers to move me a few states over instead of across country to California or somewhere. That seems way too expensive!

Feeling Like Spring…

Spring is definitely in full effect. A day early, but that’s OK. I think I might actually be looking forward to spring. I’m usually not a fan of spring because I know summer comes right behind it, but the beautiful weather is kind of nice. Today it’s supposed to be about 72 degrees. I’m surprised it’s getting so warm so fast. I hope that doesn’t mean that the summer weather will arrive fast! I need to find some fun things to do this year. I’m tired of being bored when the weather is so nice out.

At times like this I wouldn’t mind be a driver. It would be nice to go on a road trip or something. I have this weird desire to go to Chicago for some reason. I’ve never been there and never really had much interest in going there, but lately it’s been on my mind! If I get my hands on a car and some cheap car insurance you never know! I might just hit the road after all.
