I love the beach! Not as much as I love the mountains though.
We got here around 2pm and the owner let us come in an hour early. She even got me a birthday balloon! We got settled in and then B went to Walmart for an air mattress since this place is pretty small and no couch, just 2 small rooms with one bed each. B and I are having to share the queen bed. No big deal since we have been friends for 34 years.
He does frustrate me at times though. He kept picking on my son and eventually made him cry last night at dinner. We went to a place called Fish Tales across from Pleasure Pier. I had blackened tilapia and it was outstanding! My son actually ate some bbq ribs. He ordered a full rack but could only eat half. He had also eaten mini doughnuts, an entire bag of Cheetos, and some Dippin Dots. He drank like 7 glasses of water while he was eating so gee, I wonder why his stomach hurt after dinner? B had bread pudding with Baileys on it. It looked SO good but I am sticking to my keto!
We are now on day 2. The boys are going to the water park and B and I are supposed to go back to the house and he wants to make steaks. I stayed on track yesterday and only had 18 total carbs. I am wearing a size large bathing suit which amazes me.
I am posting a lot of videos on my Instagram – juliehcares.
Have a great Saturday! I will catch up on reading everyone’s posts when I have a free moment. Hugs!
I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

I ate very few carbs for the first time yesterday and I had some consequences like bad head ache, chills, nausea. I am learning slowly about my tolerance. My husband was warned he might get diabetes if he continues on his path, so now we are both eating better and exercising more. Enjoy your vacation.
you look great !! … Have a nice holiday !!!

Enjoy your vacation. I am learning about low carb diets which I guess is the same as the keto diet. Those are few carbs to have.

They are a little different actually. You can google low carb versus keto and you will get the actual difference. Thank you!
