Bahamas NYE 2009

This was my second trip to the Bahamas. The first time I went was in August about four years ago. The weather was hot then and the water felt amazing. On this recent trip, it was sunny when we first arrived after Christmas, about low to mid 70s. It wasn't as warm, but still nice. However, towards the new year, the weather began to shift and it actually rained to our dismay. After that, I wore a sweater for the remainder of our trip.

The day we arrived. Atlantis Royal Tower Resort on Paradise Island.

2009...New Year, New Attitude...New Style

Happy New Year!

I'm back from my week long vacation in the Bahamas. The weather was a little on the chilly side, but the scenery more than made up for it. We went with a bunch of our friends. It's been a tradtion we've had for 4 years now to travel and ring in the new year together.

We all went on our trip knowing that this may very well be our last vacation together since many of us will start to try to conceive. That revelation gave us more reason to party like it was 1999.

What came to my mind this NYE was how lonely I felt in a room full of people. There was never a moment I was alone, yet I felt so distant from my own husband and friends.

Maybe this was a case of delayed holiday blues. In any case, I forced myself to snap out of it and brushed it off as PMS.

I'm tired of living in fear. New year, new me. A better me, I hope.
