Ketchup

​It’s my favorite condiment. I put it on my fries, eggs, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, and sometimes even chips! And, that is me, the sad tomato! 

Ketchup is an everyday thing for me, but apparently this blog isn’t. I have been MIA. Not MIA as in Miami, I wish, but away … clearly. Peek at the date on the blog below. Go ahead. 

Done? Yeah, 2019. 

Embarrassing. Awful. Horrible. 

Ok, I’ll stop. I know you want to know what I have been doing. You are here, so you care. Thanks! 

On top of a full-time job and a part-time job running a newspaper, I am a Yorkie mom who relies heavily on 2 shots of espresso and a 27-minute nap. 

I had drafts of about two of the 11 places I went to, but the publish button never got pressed. Whoops (*insert upside down smiley face*)!

I even had what I thought were “cool” headlines, “Disneyland, Man” and “Something About Going to Another Continent.” Thank gosh those never made it live!! 

Since you already know, I went to Disneyland for the first time, and shortly after, I went on a Royal Caribbean cruise. In the same year, I went to New Zealand. It was a first for me! That was a wrap for both my spring and summer trips. 

In the fall of 2019 before starting a new job, I went to Hilton Head Island (I’ve been there before <<< that is a title of a song, but NOT the song I was thinking of), North Carolina (I’ve never been there before … HA, see what I did there?), Las Vegas for Life Is Beautiful musical festival, and a cruise to Mexico (took too many tequila shots there several times). 

For New Year’s Eve, I went to The Bahamas to ring in the best year ever, 2020!!!! YESSS!!! Just kidding, what. Little did I know, or anyone know, that trip would have been one of my last for 2020. I do have super cool friends, and they invited me to go to Vegas. I went. It was my third time going to Las Vegas, but my second as a legal adult. Upon returning on March 1, 2020, covid-19 was beginning to be the “it” thing to chat and gossip about and be distracted by. When I thought covid-19 was kind of over, I went to St. Petersburgh to visit a friend who lives there. I had never been to this cute little area. 

Do you want the details from all nine of these trips? I didn’t think so. I can barely remember because 2020 took a lot of my brain cells. 

Pictures > words.  That’s the whole reason why you scroll and scroll Instagram. I do the same. 

If you’re a bestie of mine, and I forgot a bomb pic of us to share, I am sorry. Text me!

XOXO,
