As the lazy days of summer are approaching, many of us have vacations on our mind. In 10 days, I'll be enjoying a week of sand and the sea in Oceanside, CA with my family. Even if the June gloom sets in, I won't mind wearing that sweatshirt over my bikini since I find clouds and cool weather to be a welcome relief from the incessant sun and heat this time of year in Tucson.
My 19-year-old step son will probably be surfing, my 15-year old daughter and her friend will probably giggling whenever cute boys walk by and my 13-year old son will be building imaginary battlefields and military fortresses out of sand. And what will my husband and I be doing? My husband will likely be reading a computer magazine and I will be boogy boarding or swimming in the ocean or lounging on my towel and typing away on my Alphasmart (Oh how I love that device. I can do "work" in the most pleasant of settings). And if you're wondering if whenever I'm in the water, I ever think of Jaws, the answer is "yes," but to me, life is just too short not to enjoy every possible moment in the ocean. I can almost hear the waves crashing against the sand now.
