Trip to Charleston

The week before Christmas, I took a trip down to Charleston to see my parents. I hadn't been down there since May, so of course I was very excited. The only damper on my trip... my ole Escape needs about $3000 worth of work. Do I have $3000 to just spend? I don't think so, especially after not having a job for the past couple of months.

Besides the bad news about my car, my trip to Charleston was perfect. Charleston is up there with my favorites places in the world. It has southern charm, there is so much to do, and it is beautiful and historic. I had also forgotten how much I love to hang out with my parents. They love to spoil me. We went out to delicious dinners, walked on the beach and watched the sunrise, went for morning walks with the dogs, got pedicures, shopped till we dropped, and ate handfuls of popcorn at the movies. It made me wish I lived closer to them so I could hang out with them all of the time!

Missing the beautiful weather in Charleston!

Lexie finally got a new collar from Hairy Winston

The only thing that could have made this trip better would have been if Jake could come. Oh well

Until next time,
