2/18 In an almost paradise



I'm now at the Daytona Beach Resort and Conference Center and my 5th floor room overlooks the ocean. Took some pictures with my phone. The one of the ocean view looks too bright, but you get the idea. The one of the pool looks good. There's also a pool right below my room. The hotel has an inside pool and spa too, great for cold days like this one. This is my fourth hotel and the only really nice one. I try to not complain because we work with people who have lost everything but this place is AWESOME, especially compared to hotel number 2.

The thing that stops this from being totally paradise is my roommate. No one told her she would have a roommate and she walked in after I had been here a few minutes. "WHAT?" she yelled. Then said, "They told me I wouldn't have to have a roommate." I said, "Sorry no one told you. I'm moving back to headquarters from the service center." Her: "How long will you be here?" Me: Until the end. Her: No! Well, I guess you're kind of cool.

I replied, "Kind of cool?" She said, "Yes. Kind of cool."

Help me. I want to go home.

Don't worry Jer, after she gets to know you a little better she'll know you're not cool at all:) The hotel looks awesome! How much longer before you're done?

Yeah, this place is gorgeous! I should be leaving Tuesday or Wednesday. Hope it's Tuesday. Since I start my new job next week I need some time to prepare.

OMGosh..that is right...March is just around the corner...I kept thinking you had a month....wow...good luck with the move. I'd offer to help, but we both know that is a joke, so sorry I can't be of any assistance to you.

Luckily most of my stuff is in storage in Milwaukee, and I just have a "car full" of stuff in NC. It will work out. Just need to find a place to live.

Looks like a beautiful view!! Todd's parents are going down to Ft Meyers FL on Friday to visit some friends that live there. I'd LOVE to head down somewhere warm and sunny!! Enjoy the view!
