Holy Crap I'm Going on Vacation!

Seriously its really happening. I have NEVER in my LIFE been on a real vacation. I mean ya ive done the whole road trip thing, flew across state for business, but when I say vacation, I'm talking Palm trees, all inclusive, 10 hour flight to sit in the sand for 6 days with no kids, dogs, work (ok only at night when I check my email.) until I get home.

I am PUMPED up if you can't tell. So my first plan of attack was checking out hotel and flight separately. I am a working parent with 4 kids between my husband and myself , that's code for  Im broke as f*ck. So I was trying to do this as cheap as possible. BINGO found a website that offers vacation homes BINGO I found the longest flight possible CRAP how will I eat when I get there. I hear you shouldn't drink the water so how will I buy bottled water if I spend all my money on getting down there. I didn't really care, as long as I get down there I will figure it out.

So I go to work and I talk about how excited I am for this half assed idea of leaving the cold and chasing the sun to my boss. He looks at me and asks if I paid for the trip yet, I looked at him with all honesty and said, "well no you have to pay me first" he says good, cause I got a killer travel agent for you who can set you up with an awesome deal. Just being polite I replied with... "Cool whats their contact info?" I was told to go back to my office and he will email me the link....blah blah blah...Who is this guy who travels so much he knows AAALLLL the right people ?!?!  ;)

So I check my email and see lifesatriptakeyours.com I chuckled a little bit cause the name is...well its pretty cute im not gonna lie. So I get an email out saying this is what im looking for and yaddi yaddi yaddah...I get an email back, and Lisa (sorry I didn't let you know that her name was lisa) writes back and she is super happy I wrote...and she starts talking about all of these plans she can do for me and I perk up a little bit thinking, hey....I didn't think about getting all of that. She tells me all inclusive is the way to go BAM! just like that, my food and water problems are solved ha . And not to mention there are daily activites at this one resort. Ya seriously...and all inclusive resort! So ok im beyond excited at this point, but on my salary, not exactly a resort type of checking account. So I ask what this is all going to cost me...She sends me an itinerary, showing my flight out, flight home, (getting the most time on the beach possible) hotel room, everything and I mean everything that is included and the price. I FREAKIN CRIED. I tell you no lies I saw that price and I cried. Because it was cheaper than what I priced my own vacation at.

DUDES, IM GOING TO FREAKIN CABO WITH MY HUSBAND FOR OUR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. It doesn't get better than this.

Thank you Lisa!!!!!

Now I have 8 months 15 hours 21 minutes to get my dream body on, half way there thanks to Herbalife!!
