Cause Mom Boohoo'd

So I was talking to my mom this evening and she informed me that she looks forward to my posts and that I haven't posted anything in a while. lol. I know my life is interesting and full of drama but who would have thought my mother really enjoyed reading about it....especially when she hears it on a daily basis.

WELL.....let's get all caught up shall we.

Spent the 4th of July weekend with my daddy....who came into town for an annual bbq. I love that man. He is definitely a rock in my life and someone I know I can turn to when things get rough....he'll offer me advice but let me choose my own path.

The following weekend, I went to the beach with a very good friend and just enjoyed being lazy. Laid on the beach on Saturday...got sunburnt....per my usual. Got a Henna Tattoo on my wrist....to decide if I really wanted one there (I do.).


Sunday, I drove back home and stopped at my friend Nick's. Spent all day out on his boat. It was GORGEOUS!

The following weekend....I went on a "bar golf" pub crawl. BAD IDEA.
I drank way way too much. Sunday morning...4am....I start throwing up. By Tuesday....this girl is in the hospital. I am admitted Wednesday....and am not discharged till Saturday evening. I believe what may have started as alcohol poisioning managed to turn into a full blown stomach flu. I was miserable and if I NEVER throw up again it will be too soon. Hence my 6 months sobriety. I have taken it upon myself to not drink for 6 months. I believe this was my wake up call.

This past weekend which was supposed to be for my recovery and be low key....started out that way. I went to a movie with a friend of mine. When I was dropping her off back at home, I went to turn around and well...my car just died.

Turns out my timing belt broke....in turn killing my engine. I am looking at a $2,000 repair. I am not looking forward to the repair....but thankful I have people in my life that can help me out.

So in a nutshell that is my life for the past month. August hopefully will be low key. I am headed to see one of my very best friends this weekend. Next weekend I'm hoping will involve a pool and a book. The third weekend is a friends birthday, but I am sitting out crazy festivities in the hopes to keep my sobriety in check. The last weekend of August I am going to Virgin Festival. Then my birthday and I will be Florida bound to see my mom. I had to cancel a trip in July do to my hospital stay. I am really looking forward to my September trip, laying by the pool, eating mom's home cooked food and just relaxing.
