A Face-Lift and a Freak-Out

Today has been an interesting day for me. This will be a short post because I do not feel well today  First off how do you like my new look?? I don't have the $$ to get a custom designed bloggy layout so I have to play around withe free ones for now. I like it and I hope you all do too!

I learned something very important about myself today, I am NOT an ocean boat person! My daughter and her boyfriend live in south Florida and they are big into ocean fishing. They have a boat, and they invited my husband and I to come down and go out on the boat with them to go fishing. All was going well as we slowly made our way through inlet, as we left the inlet and my son-in-love gave the boat more throttle and we began to go a little faster I got a little nervous, as we exited the inlet into the ocean the waves (which were SUPPOSED to be 1' - 2' at a 10 second interval and a light chop) turned into 3 - 4 foot waves with like a half second interval and a VERY heavy chop. Now, I have never been on a small fishing boat in this type of environment before (cruise ships and big deep sea fishing boats are my wheel-house) soooooo I proceeded to absolutely freak out!!!! I had my very first ever panic attack. I was totally freaking out and felt like I couldn't breath. I have never had a panic attack before so that made it even worse. My son-in-love turned us around and took us back to the inter-coastal waterway which was much calmer but there were no fish. I felt horrible for ruining everyone's day. On top of it all I am not feeling well tonight and I have a paper to do for my Master's program. So now that I am done with my "whine" and cheese fest I will now leave the bloggy world and head to work on my paper.

  2. I think your look is super cute. Love the brown and white polka dots :) Feel better soon. I would have been having a panic attack before ever getting on the boat so you made it further than me :)
