Spending most of my adult life In a kitchen it's now wonder that trying to relax is no easy task for me. Im always running around working on some project or another and if I'm not then I'm running around in my head. Is trying to relax an art? Do I need to be some kind of zen master to just chill?? I have relaxed before.... Plenty of times but I was always had a stabile place in my work life. Well this time it's a whole new game,! I have no job..... No next pay check. So i think a little bit of worry is normal
I just need to stay in the moment. I can't project on what going to happen after this or where I'm going to be in a few months. Because all the worry in the world will not give me the answer or make the outcome any different. So i gotta chill.
The last few days have been a blast.... Monday we drove from NYC to Jacksonville Fla .by the time we got to Jacksonville we were out of our minds.... Hopped up on energy drinks and cigarettes.... we needed to crash..... Bad! So we found a little hotel and called it a night ( I think that was around 3 am) the next morning we woke and headed to Orlando to see some family. Then it was off to Delray beach to meet up with friends and check out this cool little town.
I was thinking what all of you are thinking..... That Delray is an old people town... Well you are kinda right. The grocery stores are lined with blue haired demons and the parking lots are like bumper car rings. The stink of moth balls fill the day time air and a 90 year old man almost flung himself and his scooter in the front of my truck. When the sun goes down on Delray beach it's a whole different game. The restaurants that line Atlantic ave are full of fun loving people looking to have a good time. The restaurants range from sushi to eclectic American. I have to say this was a bit of a stunner. Who new that old people land could be such a blast! And everyone drives better at night when all the blue hairs are asleep!
Then it was off to south beach to enjoy the crazy Miami vibe and soak up some sun. We spent the day chilling on the beach then had a killer steak dinner on Ocean Ave. Im not going to go into details about Miami because it is the city of sin and I don't wanna freak the kids out! Lol
The next stop Was key west to do some camping and get into the island mood. Yesterday we got to the camp site a little late because every time we saw the ocean we needed to stop and jump in. We set up camp and headed down town for the main event here in key west... The sun set. And as I watched the sun go down over the ocean I felt a real sense of relaxation as if the setting sun took some of my nerves and worries down with it.
