Dirty Myrtle 2017: Day 8


8:00
It's the last day 😢 The intention this morning was to get up and go for a sunrise walk on the beach, but we were both dead tired so that sunrise walk turned into just a walk, which I am honestly ok with!  
Rockin' last night's lipstick...

But we found seashells and sharks teeth!

Bye beach...

10:00
In about an hour we cleaned up from our walk, got ready, finished packing, and loaded the car to head home… Pretty impressive timing though! How about a room tour before we leave?
This was the entryway 

Which led into the kitchen

And then the living room!  We literally barely moved from these recliners this week

Then there was our bedroom.

And the interesting bathroom... It had one sink connected to a room with a shower and toilet, and one with just a toilet.

See what I mean?

And then it was like a hallway into our bedroom!

And our kinda sad pool we never really used, we used another hotel's...

Now we are headed to Paula Deen's for breakfast! 

11:45
Lunch was good, but breakfast is the best… 
We had breakfast casserole, bananas foster french toast, biscuits and gravy, the best bacon in the world, fried potatoes, and pigs in a blanket! 

But the cinnamon roll they give you is still the best

After lunch we decided to walk around Broadway at the Beach for a bit (and maybe walk off some of our lunch…) 

But now sadly, it is time to leave 😢 

2:30
Just stopped at a rest stop and are switching drivers… I can't handle anymore! 

6:00
We made it to about half an hour from home and were starving and running out of gas, so we had to make another stop! 
We ate a quick dinner at Sonic, filled up the car and are about to get back on the road.

8:45
Well I've been home a little while now… It is sad that the trip we have planned and pined over is already gone, but it is good to be home. We had an amazing time together just chilling, shopping, chatting, and catching up on sleep! Our condo and the owner were amazing, and we couldn't have asked for better. The food was great, and most of all, the beach was amazing.  

But as I said, it is also good to be home. Sadly, there were some scary things that happened to occur on this vacation as well. During the weekend there were multiple shootings in Myrtle Beach. Though they were not immediately close to us, they were on 4th Avenue and we were on 76th, which is close enough. We also realized later that we had driven through the exact location of one of the shootings only hours before it occurred. Our old lady ways of being in early paid off for us, but others weren't so lucky. I don't mean to end on such a sad note, but no matter your age you should take this as a learning experience and always be careful and cautious of your surroundings. We were extremely careful and still ended up too close for comfort. Let our thoughts and prayers be with all those who were hurt or who had to witness it. Peace and love to you all❤️ 


I would like to think you all who read and came on this vacation with us. I so enjoy relaying my days to you all in this fashion, so I hope you enjoy it as well! I hope you are having wonderful summers wherever you are! Much love!

Fab Ab February

So I have been big into working out lately, because who doesn't want to look their very best when vacation time comes! I found this workout calendar on Pinterest so I'm not able to give you the link to the exact website but I thought if you liked it enough you could copy, or print it out. I have been looking for the rest of the months that go with this but so far this is the only one I've found. I am doing it myself and so far its working pretty well, I would love for you to do this with me, just comment below and tell me any of your thoughts about it . Enjoy!! :)

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...

Nadine West: Fourth Shipment

So this wasn't the most successful shipment ever, but I still got one nice piece out of it!  And they left me a sweet surprise which I'll tell you about at the end, so I wasn't upset at all! This is actually two items from my shipment!  This outfit contains both the shirt and leggings from this month, and they kind of go together!   Though I really liked the pattern of the leggings, they are much more like tights.  They were totally see through, which made me pretty sad.  If they were marketed as tights then I wouldn't be too disappointed, but these were called Leggings.  They retailed for $14.49, and I didn't keep them. The shirt fit very well and was extremely comfy.  I have been looking for a shirt this color, so I was pretty excited to see it in my bag, even though it is pretty basic.  This shirt also retailed for $14.49, and I did elect to keep it! These are the "Beauty Within" earrings, and I'm actually pretty sure I rece...
