Life has been good and busy and honestly, too busy to even remember to take photos to share here. But, I am ready to get back to normal after the hurricane clean up and celebrate the holidays. I feel like all of the Florida Gulf Coast feels the same way. Hurricane season is finally over and our normal sunshiney days await for the next 9 months.
Since we returned to Florida from our trip to Michigan, there has been a lot of catching up, but also fun. Snowbird friends are arriving back for the season, so we have been out and about. Golf and yoga are always part of my days too. I hosted a dinner party and today, I am going to test a new crust recipe for my Thanksgiving pies.
The most fun occurred last weekend when my daughters visited for a long delayed girls weekend to celebrate Melissa’s 30th birthday. We had planned to go to the new Margaritaville resort in Ft. Myers, but the pool was filled with sand from the hurricanes and we ultimately decided to spend the weekend here at my pool. I made them fun drinks, they got plenty of lounge chair sun time and we had a great night in downtown Sarasota with rooftop pre dinner drinks, a wonderful dinner at a new to us restaurant and post dinner martinis at a speakeasy type bar. I miss them already, but luckily Christmas is very soon.
I am a big theatre geek and have seen Wicked three times on stage, so I did something I have never done before and went to see the movie by myself yesterday. I knew I would have emotions and wanted to experience it on my own. There are really no words for how good it is and how it paid wonderful homage to the play and to The Wizard of Oz. During the iconic songs, I had both chills and tears. Seeing it again, will be happening soon.
Happy Saturday!
