Last weekend Adam and I went down to Rehoboth to take care of a few things at his parent’s beach house. It was a welcome break after busy and stressful summer. I’ve been feeling down lately about work and Adam has been working some insane hours with his new start-up. He encouraged me to take the day off on Friday and make it a three day weekend, so on Friday morning, we packed up the new car for it’s first road trip and made the 90 minute drive down to slower lower.
I spent the day on Friday relaxing with a book outside while Adam finished up some work. On Saturday, we hit the road and took a scenic drive to Bethany Beach where we browsed some of the shops, walked along the boardwalk and soaked up the absolutely gorgeous weather. That night, we went to Lewes to admire the amazing houses and ended the night at our favorite Italian restaurant. By Sunday, it was time to pack up and head back home again.
It feels like life has been moving a mile a minute for us over the past year with house projects, family events, graduate school, work, overtime and starting new jobs. Now that things are finally starting to settle down (at least for me), I’m starting to look toward what’s next for me. Even though I complained about it, after being out of school for six months, I’m really starting to miss it. I’m so thankful that I have someone there to listen to my frustrations and encourage me to try new things. While I figure out the next step, I’m going to attempt to stay positive, roll with the punches and relax while I can because you never know what’s around the corner.

I'm glad you and Adam could get away for a relaxing weekend!! Sometimes relaxing is harder to do than it seems - especially when you're coming from a really busy schedule. I'm glad you have a great partner in crime to help you sort things out!
Glad you had a nice trip to Rehoboth. Sometimes getting away is so necessary in order to relax. Time flies and if you dont stop and smell the roses once and a while and remember what is important it can begin to feel like a rat race. Stay positive, focus on what is in your control and all that you have accomplished in the last 3 years --the rest will fall into place. Enjoy the rest of summer xoxo
