Living On Island Time...

I was fortunate enough to be able to break away from the office last Friday and fly down to Key Largo for the weekend to spend some time with my Aunt and Uncle who I adore. When I was a teenager my Aunt worked at our High School and her daughter who was a year older than me was my best friend so I spent many a day and night at their house.



It was so great to spend the weekend with them...I felt like I was 14-years old again and I have to admit it was quite comforting and relaxing to be away from the world and feel like you had no worries at all...You know there is a lot of truth to the phrase; "living on island time"...cause the only times you have to worry about are what time your flight comes in and what time it goes out. There are no other time restraints when you head to the Keys.

Everyone needs a weekend like that once and a while to clear their mind and thoughts and forget about your responsibilities and cares. The water and the fresh ocean air were heavenly and to be able to sit out in the sun and feel the warmth on my skin after such a crazy winter was also heavenly.

I have to admit that while I did work almost the entire time I was there...it in no way felt like work. Catching up on my reading and writing while sitting out on the deck in your bikini catching some rays is the only way to work offsite!


I think the Keys and I will be seeing more of each other in the weekends to come this summer!
