Let's Spend A Week Doing Nothing Fun...

• So I have been at the beach for a week almost. Mom, dad and I left at around 6 am last Sunday and got to Holden Beach (the Neeley Beach House) at like 5 something in the evening. It was a very long and boring trip once dad figured out his trucks usb port (so we could listen to music). Anyways, we got here and got the truck unloaded. Brenda and Rachel who had left the night before us were in the process of showering after a day at the beach when we got in. When they were ready we got back in the car, got dinner and then headed to Wal-Mart.

• Monday and Tuesday we spent the days at the beach. Wednesday I was bored of the beach and pretty much had all the tan I was going to get without burning so I stayed in and relaxed. Thursday mom and I did some gift shopping and then spent a little bit of time at the beach until the storm rolled in. We all got ready and drove into Myrtle Beach for dinner and fun. We ate at the Bonefish Grill and while I wasn't too thrilled with it everybody else loved it. After that we went to Wing's (I think it was) and did some shopping. We came home and just hung out. The storm kept me up most of the night. Thunder shook the whole house a couple times waking me up and the lightening was rediculously bright and right outside my window.

• The next morning we four girls went to these islands (sand dunes) at the end of the island. I got a lot of amazing pictures of shells and other pretty cool things. The other three collected shells. Then we came back and hit the beach for a little bit again. When it started raining I came in but the other four waited it out and went back out to the water for a bit.

• Today we spent the morning cleaning. Rachel and Brenda went parasailing this morning as well. I am spending the day inside because I have no desire to spend any more time in the sun and heat this week. The sad thing is I couldn't go anywhere all week because I can't drive the company car and Rachel doesn't let me use her car so all in all it was pretty boring. I unlike the others don't enjoy just sitting on the beach in the heat and going in the water a couple times throughout the day...BORING!!!

• However right down the beach a guy caught a total of three sand sharks in three days...that was just four or five houses down...CREEPY much? The good news is that apparently sand sharks just nibble they don't attack...lol...so reassuring. I also got to see some baby turtles hatch which was cool. It was dark so I didn't see much and the pictures didn't turn out but I did see it.

• But on the upside when I get back I should have my supplies to start selling the Usborne books. My friend who sells them found a special where I could start for $20 and was willing to lend me the money. So she signed me up and my supplies were delivered today from the confirmation number and all I was sent. I am so excited to start. When I get home I am going to call the New Brighton library and see if I can get in there and I'm going to try Tri State again because I will need at least a part time job while selling as well.

• Anyways, lots of pictures to come to facebook soon...I don't even have them all on the computer yet. Got to do a few touch-ups as well. I'm sure there is more to say but I don't know what it is so I'm going to go. But if any of you who are reading this would like to start selling Usborne Books or maybe host a party let me know...I can do home shows or eshows (only selling over the internet).
