oh, our last day here has come way too quickly! leaving vero after a wonderful getaway has always been a really overly-emotional thing for me. i remember times over the years when i’d be holding back tears on airplanes or crying quietly as i stared out the window on the long drive home, just not at all ready to go back to regular life. and life is so good! it’s not that… i’ve just always felt so at peace and so safe from the world here, like none of the silly stressors or pressures or expectations that might get to me in my every day could possibly find me here. and somehow over 30 something years of life, redecoratings, salty air, and hurricanes, this pretty little condo still has the exact same smell of comfort and warmth that i have known for my entire life. some days i wake up craving this smell and this feeling so badly when i’m not here, and i savor every last bit of it when i am… i’m just so thankful for this place and my 26 years of experiences here! but, once again, it’s almost time for us to go… my most patient steven’s been home almost a week already and i kinda miss him, so let’s hope he’s not too settled into his new bachelor lifestyle 😉 oh, and then there’s my minnie, my kitty, my horseypie and my plants that i can’t wait to love on. is it weird that i’m at a point in my life where i want to consider my plants family members? well, anyway. vero, i love you. a lot. now, time for coffee and one more beautiful day!

You are seriously such a babe. And your own little sweet babe in your arms is pretty darn cute!! 🙂 What a pretty write-up. You're making me crave my very own piece of beachy heaven myself! Soon enough!

ugh I felt the same way leaving Santa Barbara last Friday! To top it all off it was only 50 degrees in Boston when I arrived home. boo!

I miss living within driving distance of the beach! When I lived in Oregon it was so easy to take weekend trips to the beach. Even if it was too cold to go in the water, it was always an amazing time just soaking in the serenity. Watching the waves crash and dreaming as I gazed off towards the horizon.
Glad you had a wonderful get away!

I used to go on vacation every summer to a lake resort about 3 hours from where I lived. I always cried on the ride home because that vacation week was always so full of joy and peace.
