Dirty Myrtle: Days 6 and 7

Day 6

12:00
Hello everyone! I just sat my butt down on the beach, and this is a little late for even us!  


This morning Kaitlyn suggested walking to the Starbucks down the road, and who was I to turn her down? 

After that little endeavor we came back to put sunscreen on, and headed out to the beach! We are cooking in tonight, so we can stay out later since we don't have to dress up! Also update, thankfully the sunburns on our butts have faded out and aren't as painful 😂

4:55
So we ended up going in for lunch around 2:00 and had leftovers again, but then something exciting happened… I got to FaceTime my boyfriend! He is currently on a study abroad trip in Africa doing clinical shadowing in a hospital in Zambia. He has only been gone about a week so far, but I haven't gotten to talk to him very much, so I was really happy about that! 


Pretty awesome view while talking to him too!

7:00
We are cooking dinner again tonight! We are having chicken Alfredo with roasted tomatoes and salad. 

12:00

We ended up spending a few hours in the pool and hot tub enjoying some of our last days here. This counts as staying up late right?


Day 7

11:00
Good morning everyone! I went and got doughnuts again… we are going to gain a million pounds by the end of this trip. 

12:00
Time for a lunch of leftovers!
Aren't we cute and matchy?

Am I an Instagram model yet with my fuzzy hair and patchy sunburn?

6:35
Headed out to dinner! 

My outfit: shirt and shorts are both American Eagle, and my bralette is Aerie… not much variety today huh? 

Kaitlyn's outfit: Shirt is from Target 

8:50
More Tangers shopping! 

We had seafood for dinner at a little hole in the wall type place. I had calamari and Kaitlyn had crab legs!

Can you tell she is excited about them?

10:30
We just made it back from shopping… this is probably the latest we've stayed out yet! Of course it would be so we could waste more money… 

1:00
Wow… we finally broke our old lady streak to stay up late! Aren't you proud of us?? 


We made strawberry slushies and went down to the pool for a few hours, and then came back up to our condo to enjoy the last fleeting moments of this vacation 😢

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....
