Guess I will just type here till the battery on my computer runs out.
Been lounging around for a few days. Have to go to work tomorrow though. Thats good. Need the money. We got our shifts cut down to 4 shifts a week which sucks. We have so many people working there that we can only have 4. I guess they are trying to stock up for season. I need to hurry up and get my TWIC card so I can part time with OnDeck to make up for the days I won't be working.
In other news, Lilly leaves on Monday to go home to KW for a whole month! We found a nice place on the North Side that I will be moving into on the first, she will join me when she gets home. It's super nice, I can't wait to take pictures for you! This is the view from our living room. :) Did I mention the living room is all open air? No windows or screens or anything. Just a giant tile living room with couches and chairs and a coffee table and a big dining table right at the edge of the porch. It's covered and everything, just open.
Pretty nice huh? That's Magens Bay on the right, the island on the left in the foreground is Hans Lollick, in the center in the background is Jost Van Dyke, BVI and to the right out in the mist is Tortola, BVI. So. Yeah. It's going to be a huge change but we will be saving money on rent and we will be saving money on food and entertainment because we will be living out in the country and we will have a real kitchen!!! Right now we live in a hotel room with a microwave and a mini fridge so you can imagine how much money we drop eating out. Also, living in town gives us an excuse to go out drinking all the time because we can walk to the bars and stumble home. Living on the mountain will keep us in shape and give our livers a rest.
It's about that time of year again, all the mega yachts and sailboats are trickling back into the harbor! My buddy Brian (the one i got my fingerstache tattoo with) will be here on his yacht this thursday! WOO HOOOOOO! And I am sure the rest of my wayward pirate friends will follow soon.
Damn these mosquitos!
I have spent all day cleaning the house and doing laundry like a good little wifey and now I am locked out. wow. I don't know when Lilly is coming home and Jill and Doug are out so I have no way of getting in until Lilly decides it's time to stop drinking and comes home. This could be a long night.

Love the picture! The view is fantastic and I'm so envious. How great! So let me ask you a question...no more yachting? Or at least crewing as stew or first mate?
ReplyDeleteYachtless or not, you're currently in a great place. All that sunshine - it's not fair ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome news. I'm still searching for us a place in St. J.
ReplyDeleteI'll send your Lilly a message. ;)
ReplyDeleteFuck! Your 'lounge' is beautiful. Fuck. Awesome. Some folks get to see great beauty in their lives, and you are one of d'em folks. Me too. I have seen so many stunning places in my life so far and really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteGo girl!
Heather, no. I'm not saying I don't have my CV out there still just in case but I am enjoying my time to myself and being on land. Although I just got an email from the 295ft Sailing Yacht "Athena".... oh boy... here we go again.
ReplyDeleteOh Jolea you make me smile! I hope to catch up to you someday! I feel like I'm doing it all in reverse tho! Enjoy it! You only live once!
ReplyDeleteNice view! Love the idea about the living room being open to the elements, as I am sure the mosquitos do too.
ReplyDeletewood !!
ReplyDeleteJust discovered your blog and I hate you! You live the life I dream of ;-)
