A few hours ago, it was like someone had opened flood gates! It was this beautiful, cool downpour of nothing but refreshing and wonderful rain! Of course, everyone on vacation was unhappy about it, but I think all the locals did a happy dance! We went grocery shopping at the local Publix on Central Florida Parkway and everyone was so nice and happy! So whoever was doing the rain dance out there? Good Job! You succeeded! Now KEEP doing it!! ;)
We are still looking at apartments in the Winter Park, Casselberry, Altamonte area, and unfortunately have not found anything yet. Prices are going up again in a poor economy, and I will never understand that. We live in a 2 bedroom apartment currently for $800 a month, but there are so many things wrong with it that it is 100% not worth it to stay here. Between the crappy lay out and all the damages that previous tenants had, then our dishwasher flooding the apartment and that never being repaired, it is time. Time to move on to bigger, better, and much more beautiful things. If I could find another newer 2 bedroom where we want to be or even a 1 bedroom with a den, for around the same price, I would be so happy I would post a video of me doing an insane happy dance!
In other news, I need to step back again and refocus on my health and my life. I have let school and work effect me very negatively and have to get back to the happy, healthy, and wonderful person I used to be, and will be again! I am blessed and highly favored and know that I can do this! Between my blood pressure being through the roof and always having my body be in pain, this is no bueno. Time to ramp up the motivation, get back on the positive track, and remember why I am so awesome!
Speaking of health, part of that is exercise, and part of exercise is bowling! Apparently, Downtown Disney is putting in this GINORMOUS bowling alley called Splitsville in where the Virgin Megastore (RIP) used to be! Now, that is something I would be willing to check out in a heartbeat! I just wish that they would bring back Pleasure Island! What a terrible business decision to get rid of the one place where people can escape to and truly have fun (well, for adults... and that's why it was so bad to get rid of it!). Alas, things must change, but to make way for more restaurants and shopping? Meh... doesn't excite me! I have stayed away from Disney for the majority of the past year, and think it is in the best interest to continue to do so. Walt's dream was for creativity, inspiration, positive memories, family connections, and a beautiful tomorrow... NOT food, shopping, and crap.
Que sera sera... I'm intrigued to see what the next few years will bring in as far as business and I wish all the theme parks in the area nothing but the best success. It takes a lot to run one of those beasts and everyone is doing what they can with demanding tourists needs.
That's all for now! A little tie dye from my brain to yours! Hope you have a wonderful day and if you can't find anything enjoyable here, may you find it elsewhere! Always remember: You are Blessed and Highly Favored!
xoxo
