as luck would have it...

You know how it is when you have plans to do something and then life gets super busy and your plans sort of just get pushed aside? That sort of explains my life right now.


I feel like I'm going in a million different directions at once. Yesterday I put everything on hold and did something fun. I had coffee with TWO of my fellow bloggers.


I've mentioned that Natalia from Embracing the Journey lives sort of near me. We each drive 45 minutes once in a while to meet up in the middle for coffee...worth every mile it takes to get there. We always have such great conversation.


Yesterday we were very lucky because we had the privilege of having coffee with none other than the super fabulous Cammy from Tippy Toe Diet. If you've read Cammy's blog you know how amazing she is but to meet her in person is just WOW! She is simply beautiful inside and out and so inspirational. She is one of those people you can sit down and talk to and feel like you've known her your whole life.I just love her!


I had about two hours of sleep the night before but as soon as I got there I felt so energized being around these two. We talked for what felt like a little over an hour when it fact over three hours had passed!

We were talking about life and driving/traffic around the Tampa area when a man at the next table who I suspected was listening to our conversation interjected and added his comments. The three of us went back to our conversation and it eventually turned to the dynamics of blogging and once again the guy from the next table jumped into our conversation and tell us all about his blog and his company...and thats just how irresistible we are. I sort of suspect he was disappointed when we left and took our entertaining conversation with us.

And yes we talked about all of you but don't worry we only had nice things to say :-)

  2. Hey Diana! We did have a great time! You know I love you! Cammy, what a sweet, beautiful lady. I could've talked to you both all day without feeling any time had passed at all. :)

    The man next to us was funny. I saw him grin every now and again, so we must've been very entertaining to him! LOL

  9. It's so nice to actually talk to people you "know" in person!

    You have to take time out of your life to do that once in a while!

    Glad you had a great day!

  14. I am going to have to go check out Cammy's blog now!!! She sounds lovely! I need to swing by Natalia's too. I bet that was a nice change of pace for you to go and relax with Natalia and Cammy. I'm bummed that you live all the way over there....
    Are you having issues with the flooding where you are? Are you and the family safe? Don't need to put pupper's in life vests do you? I saw on the news how terrible the floods are in Florida.

  15. We aren't having flooding here Monica, I know other parts of FL are having some flood issues because it hasn't rained in so long and I suspect some of the drains are blocked. Places got 2 feet of rain in a day. Never a good thing.
