my most fabulous husband surprised me with a trip to the beach last night for our anniversary (apparently him coming home early wasn’t enough). we dined, we walked, we reminisced, we enjoyed each other. it was very nice. although, while cocoa is “our beach”, it made me more homesick. i can’t wait to get back to my home with my stuff and my backyard. i miss my backyard tremendously. i’m looking forward to us having some good quality us time over the long weekend. of course, unfortunately, some of that “us” time is going to include paint brushes and rollers.
