We all know what it is.. some deal with it better than others... some just don't deal with it at all... It is called STRESS.

I can honestly say that I am happier now in my life than I have ever been. I have a wonderful husband, and fabulous career, healthy grandchildren and grown kids that can support themselves! (Parenting Goal 101 Achieved!) But, I can also say that with all of the wonderful things going on there are additional levels of stress that I have determined can be dealt...

One of the many things you will notice when arriving in SWFL, along with the beautiful beaches, the outdoor dining, fishing, dolphin watching, golfing, parasailing, Parrot Head Clubs, and Tiki bars are "The BINGO Halls"!

So, I wanted to just share my story as a person who went through their first hurricane as a Florida resident... I have been here through other "threats"... and tend to follow the vibe of my husband, who went through Hurricane Charley, and lived to tell me about it. But this crazy storm of a size that no one had ever seen before, made me nervous. The images that were coming across the TV of the spanking Irma was delivering to the Caribbean were horrifying.

Okay, I was flat...

Anyway!

I went to the airport early in St. Louis and then had a layover in Charlotte... before catching my flight home to Tampa.

I love people watching at the airport.... there is nothing more entertaining and blog worthy than the people around me.

First...

This weekend has been a long planned girls weekend to the Magical place of Disney World! The magic was lost on the kids who were having meltdown's all around us! We decided the Magic Kingdom is wonderful, but most likely best visited at night by adults who are kid free. LOL

Granted, we are all Mom's...... "been there done that"....... so.. we understand the pain and frustration that Mom's go through with meltdown moments. BUT... I felt bad for the kids who were only...
