Okay this is the post where I tell you that after just getting back from Hawaii I am jet setting off to another warm sunny locale. It's not quite as glamorous as it sounds really...Honey has a business thing and I begged and pleaded to tag along.
Oh yeah and it's in MIAMI!!! I've never been to Florida, unless you count eating at a Red Lobster in Pensacola once.
My folks are here now to take care of the Chicks and we take off early this week. I won't be posting very often the next few weeks because my parents don't like it when I'm on the computer when they are here. What's up with that??
When I travel I have really weird thoughts. Like...I know my kids will be taken care of if something happens to me... if I'm in a plane crash or something, but what about my blogging buddies? How will they know? No one knows my blogger password. Will they notice if I never blog again...will they miss me?? I actually think that way. I'm nutty...what can I say.
Anyway just so we are clear. If you never hear from me again it is because I'm dead or in a coma or something, and I can't remember that I even have a blog. I would never just not post again. Now this is turning into the weirdest post I have ever written. Anyway I love you girlies a lot (and I really mean it)... MISS ME!!!
{Just because...isn't she cute?}
Oh and sidenote. Someone recognized me from my blog at the gym today and sent me an email later asking if it was me. It was the strangest thing ever. I think I had a goofy grin on my face for about half an hour. I felt famous...HA! Has that ever happened to you? It was really cool. If it hasn't I hope it does some day:)
Have a great weekend.
Laughed out loud! BE SAFE and I hope you have a great time :)
ReplyDeleteHaha hilarious!

have fun you world traveling farmgirl!
ReplyDeleteyou are going to be completely rockin the coastal tan
& ps, so cute about the blog reader!
Medication!
ReplyDeletei so have had the very same thoughts. not strange at all. ; )
ReplyDeletemiami is about to get hottt! : )
oh my goodness... last week i was at target and someone came up to me and said, "i know you don't know me, but i read your blog." it was so weird, but cool, and then i got to thinking what in the world it would be like to be kelly from kelly's korner.
Have soooo much fun!!!! We love you too!!!:-))
ReplyDeletexo,
Melanie
Girl, if I saw you at a gym, I'd of ran and hugged your (sweaty?) neck! ;) Have a fantastic Miami time!
ReplyDeletehow fun! i laughed because i think i'd have some of those very same thoughts! take care, susan
ReplyDeleteMake sure you check out coconut grove and fairchild tropical gardens...
ReplyDeleteHave a ball!
I won't hate you for jetting off to Florida Becky ~ have a blast. As for the other ~ I have had those thoughts too ~ first time when we were on the highway heading to a family function. I thought it was just me and my morbid thoughts!! Glad to see someone else shares my concerns. I have created a document with all our info on it and update it every New Years. My SIL knows where it is and what to do in case of an emergency. I am a little anal retentive like that! Have a wonderful trip. xo
ReplyDeleteI am not worthy! You're famous wow! No one will ever recognize me because no one knows I blog in my town, ha! Just the way I like it! Have a great trip just the two of you!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to have a great time!
ReplyDeleteHere is my question-
Why would your parents care if you are on the computer while they are staying with your chicks? I have really been thinking about this, and I cannot come up with an answer-
Have a Fun, Sunny & Romantic trip with your hubby, and don't worry about us bloggers. :)
Joyce
You mean EVERY mom DOESN'T have those thoughts? I'm WEIRD? Well, then at least I'm in good company!! Have a wonderful trip to Miami. I was only there for a couple of days bookending a cruise a few years back. If I'd been blogging I would have found A LOT of fodder for my camera and my writing, so snap away! Now, I have a little hint for you when you are back home and your parents are still visiting: ERRANDS. While you are erranding {alone} you can stop in at your local public library and LOG ON to your Blogger account and at least come by and visit us, if you can't post. Otherwise, we'll miss you! Bon Voyage : ) xx P&H
ReplyDeleteHave a great time. QUit thinking weird things. My son and his wife are on a trip right now. They keep calling to check on their "chicks"..........driving Grammy crazy.
ReplyDeleteI want your puppy to come and live with me, so cute. What breed is he.
And you would be missed for sure.
First of all... Heaven forbid anything happen to you!!! You will be fine...
ReplyDeleteand it sounds like you ARE famous! So congrats! Enjoy Miami!... head on down to South Beach... one of my favorite places to be!
-kelley
I would definitely miss you, and so would a bunch of other people!! No worries there. Plus, mentally figuring out who would take care of the kids is just our maternal instinct kicking in, making sure everything is "just right". :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time!
oh my gosh, I am so glad to read you have those same thoughts! I have traveled more this past year than I have probably in the 9 yrs. since we started having kids and I seriously wondered the same things...even about my blog! lol So funny. And yet...a little deranged!
ReplyDeleteHope Miami is a blast!!
Can you hear me laughing from Spokane?! You are so, so cute. I have had the SAME thoughts as YOU! Hope you two have a great time in Miami, it will be nice for the two of you to be away.
ReplyDeleteBe safe, and enjoy!!
Hugs,
Erin
Oh my gosh!! another fun trip! I can't wait to hear all about it!!
ReplyDeleteHawaii then to Miami ....can't beat that.. now can you??!!
Hugs,
Beth
Have a great time with the hubby in warm, wonderful Florida!
ReplyDeleteI need to contact you via email about that sign?
Enjoy your time together with the hubs, saying safety prayers!
Yay for another trip...go have fun! Stop worrying silly all will be well and I will always remember you..even in Heaven! :D
ReplyDeleteNO FREAKING WAY!! (about thinking, "What if I die?") I think that exact same thing! Okay, let's exchange blogger info. It'll be like giving each other a spare key, which I would so totally give you girl.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you thought that, because I have thought so many times, if something happened, I would have you be the one to log in and talk to my readers. It would have to be someone who knows blogging, you know?
I just love you even more because of this post.
Oh, and have a ball baby!!! :)
I always worry about things like that. When my kids were little I'd write them each a note and tuck it away in case my plane crashed...how morbid is that!?
ReplyDeleteNowadays I call my kiddies when I return from a trip and am usually greeted with a..."Had no idea you were gone Mom!"
::sigh::

ReplyDeleteOMG BECKY I LIVE 4 1/2 HOURS AWAY FROM MIAMI!!! TO BAD WE CANT MEET UP! I live only like 40min away from Orlando! Well have fun ya lil travel bug!lol
ReplyDeleteoh my you lucky girl! are you going to visit jessica from two shades of pink down there???
ReplyDeletewell I will put off my order for a few weeks then.
Oh my gosh, you are so funny!
ReplyDeleteI thought I recognized someone from their blog and said "Hi so and so!" all excitedly. Yeah, it wasn't her. It was her sister so I didn't feel so stupid, but still.
We moved to Orlando about two years ago...you will love the very warm and sunny weather while you are in Miami!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog....looking forward to browsing around!
I went to Southern Cal. last week to visit a friend and I told my husband to let my blog friends know if anything happened to me. you're not the only crazy. I'm with you!
Well...I only hate you a little because you know...I am still stuck here in Minnesota :)
ReplyDeleteThat is pretty cool that someone recognized you! That would be fun. Last week we had the opposite. One of my posts made the June Goodhousekeeping magazine & I didn't even know it had come out & I had bloggers recognize my daughter & me in the magazine & got all these emails :) It was funny. She totally felt like a celeb & people have been asking her to sign it. So exciting :)
But have fun in Miami! I totally know what you mean about worrying when you are away. I am nutty like that too!
I *love* the photo of you. Were you a model before you got married? If not why not?
ReplyDeleteI am so happy to hear that you will be going to Miami wih your husband. I'm sure that it will be a wonderful trip for just the two of you. Try not to worry. I have faith that you will be back blogging as soon as your back home and settled in.
Mary
have fun! I still need to catch up on your Hawaii trip. :)
ReplyDeleteOh girlie, you are so FUNNY when you are NUTTY! So you are funny alot! ha ha!!! I can always count on you for a smile or a belly laugh!
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Miami with hubby! I hope you get some time to spend together and if not, I hope you get to sit on the beach or around the pool and just enjoy the peace! That sounds heavenly!
I've been busy this week and haven't been on the computer much, so I've already missed you and will continue to miss you when you are gone. Have a great time!
Hugs,
Lee Ann
"Well, I'll see you in heaven if your plane..." : ) That's what I've been saying to my friends and family ever since I was little. So, you're just fine. Have a beautious trip with your hubby! I am going on a wee vacation too....to Minnesota!
ReplyDelete: )
Julie M.
None of us could ever hate you for getting too much happiness. I'm sure I speak for everyone who reads your blog every time you post when I say, GOOD FOR YOU! Have a nice time exploring Miami. Urban jungles will have beauty just like the tropical jungles of Hawaii! I will miss your posts (oh, try to sneak one or two in--if for no other reason than to be a bad girl. *tee hee*) And about people wondering what happened to you, I've thought of that, too, with my FB friends. Luckily (I think) I have a clever 14 yr old daughter who has been able to figure out every password I've ever thought of so she would notify everyone...I think. Hmmmmm.....Anyway, enjoy enjoy N-JOY. ~Joy
ReplyDeleteYou can tell us not to hate you, but I still might... just a teeny bit! :D A KID free vacation..... ahhhhhh..... Now you are on to something, Girl. Taking a kid free vacation AFTER the family vacation... bRiLliAnT :D Enjoy your trip. It sounds amazing.... maybe someone will recognize you Miami?!?! (I will keep my fingers crossed!)
ReplyDeleteBecky, you're the best! Your posts always make me smile. (I think of stuff like that too....)
ReplyDeleteenjoy your trip my silly friend!
ReplyDeleteLove your art. Such happy colors. And I am envious that you will be in Miami after Hawaii! That's not fair. Your food in Hawaii makes me drool. We were there years ago...paradise!
ReplyDelete"We" are mother/daughter team from Minnesota (that's why I am really envious!!!). We are only a couple months old and would love to have you come and visit our new blog.

We really aren't all about our jewelry, though we are busy with jewelry for a fair right now. Mostly about our life and loves!

Well awh I think your blog has exploded lately because girl you have gotta a mega bunch of followers. I think about a hundred more added since last week. Why would anyone hate you for getting to go Florida with your hunky hubby? Have a blast!! Your puppy is adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou lucky duck! Have a blast on your trip and come back with some bloggy stories for us :)
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on being a famous blogster!!!
Becky,
ReplyDeleteSo I guess I am glad that we can say I recognized you at the gym rather than at McDonalds or Dairy Queen - we are such healthy bloggers! Have a wonderful time in Miami! I will be in Jeff's Tuesday's 8:30 am Cycle class...care to join me???

You are being MISSED and LOVED all the way in Athens, Greece.
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Miami you jet-setting Farmgirl. Looking forward to the pics.
I could never hate you Becky, you're too warm and caring, but I am jealous in a big way about your trip to another sunny locale!!! Our weather has been seriously lacking here in the Midwest! Have fun with your hubby!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs ~
:) T
p.s. I am a seriously nervous flyer as well and think just like you...
this post is cracking me up because my head is filled with the same thoughts. I leave for a trip to Virginia on friday and my head is exploding with crazy thoughts. Have a fun time.
ReplyDeleteThey recognized you from your blog??!!! That has never happened before but I've thought about how cool that would be.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
Oh and I have something in the drawer of our desk that says... if something were to happen to me... please post on my blog. Then I describe how to get into it. I'm weird like that too.
Have fun, fun, fun!! Do some plein aire painting as well, or at least be inspired!

I think this is one of my favorite posts you have ever written because you are crazy like me- I think the same silly things about plane crashes and comas and ... I would feel famous and smile too. So cute. Have a blast.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time in Miami. I bet you will come back with a tan.
ReplyDeleteI have thoughts like that too - about how would my cyber buddies know if I fell off the planet.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog tonight, so you have to come back from Miami and write about it! :)
Have a safe trip.
Really like this website, this really helps and very useful.

There are so many gems here - first, being so famous. I guess it will freak you out, though, if they start taking pictures - LOL - and selling them to the tabloids. What a compliment, though. Second, you lucky mom - getting time alone with your guy - and nobody hollering, 'Mom' while your in the bathroom. and, third, yes, moms are such organization freaks that we want to organize everything for after we're gone. Have a great time! Enjoy thinking uninterrupted thoughts!
ReplyDeleter u kidding, everything about miami is glamorous...i love it there!
ReplyDeletenow becky! i would definatley notice if you were missing! i hope you had fun in florida!!! wished i lived closer i would of loved to see ya! xoxo
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog today - super cute! And of course, your blog buddies would know you were missing!
ReplyDeleteFun that you were recognized for your blog! I don't like being recognized from my job (it's usually not a good thing!), but all I can say is, ENJOY! =)

Hi Becky,
ReplyDeleteI have been gone for a while from blogland and I am trying to catch up on your posts! You are just like me with your thoughts! I guess it is normal, even more so because we have kids.
I have been to Miami several times. Ok, so does the airport count? I would love to actually stay there for a long weekend!
