Free stay at the coast! Life is good!

September 17th, 2013 at 04:51 am

I worked in the office half day today and then headed to the coast. I arrived here to a very sunny, yet cool- breezy, afternoon. The view is simply spectacular- and this condo- omg. My bedroom and bath are SERIOUSLY as big as my entire house +. Granted, my house is only 390sq ft. But still..wow. My bedroom is ocean facing and has a balcony. So, I have the door open and will listen to the waves for the next three nights. I am, once again, in heaven.

Here is the view from my bedroom this afternoon:


Best of all, I am being paid to be here. Big Grin

Tonight, I am sharing the condo with two co-workers. All of the rooms are nice with private baths. The room I am in is the 'master' - I guess be
cause I reserved a spot first. Tomorrow, I will have the place to myself for the remainder of my stay.

I opted to just get fruit, snap peas, and a healthy choice dinner tonight. We ate out so much this past weekend that I really wasn't in the mood to go anywhere tonight. I will turn in my receipts for the week and get reimbursed. We are allowed up to $50 per day.

Part of the drive, I listened to one of the books on CD that I checked out from the library. The other part, someone had left a Jack Johnson CD in the player. I have never listened to his music, but I enjoyed it very much. One of the songs was Banana pancakes..they all were nice and mellow.

My girls all texted me today to say how much fun they had this past weekend. I am so thankful we are so close. My kids and grandkids are my biggest blessings.

Since my job is reimbursing expenses, today was a no-spender. Did I mention the fantastic view?? Big Grin So, so blessed.

    Envious! I loved listening to the waves from our Newport, OR hotel: so soothing. I keep some wave recordings on my mp3 player to listen to in bed.

    Love the view! Which coast are you on? That looks like a sunset, so my guess is west coast?

    How wonderful for you. I must admit that I'd be making full use of my per diem for food and it would not be for the items you bought. Probably a great steak and potatoes and a fabulous Caesar salad. Made by someone else :-)
    Enjoy the sound of the waves. Awesome.

    Nice! I hadn't heard any JJ songs until a few years ago. He has a really nice sound.
