I’m at Myrtle Beach with tow of my best friends.During the day, we went to the pool, went to the beach, and generally tried to wear the kids out so we could have grownup time after they went to bed. So, what is the first thing we do when the kids go to bed? Pull out our laptops and set to playing online.

In our defense, it is raining and someone has to stay with the kids, so it’s not like we can really go out. It’s funny, in my college days I would have immediately pulled out a bottle of something to drink and I would have wanted to talk and talk and talk. But I’ve learned a lot in my adult life. I’ve learned that sometimes you don’t have to talk, it’s enough just to be with your friends. I’ve learned that everything I have and everything I am I owe to my family and friends. I’ve learned that sometimes you just have to get away, even if you don’t get away from it all. Have laptop, will travel.

Have a beautiful rest of your week, Love Shak-ers.
