An Update

Things are happening -- on Sunday I leave for a work trip to Florida that will last.. get this... FOUR WEEKS! That's an entire month living in a hotel room away from everything. Even though four weeks is pretty much an eternity, it's actually a really great work opportunity. Basically, my company is merging with another (much bigger) company so they are sending some people down to headquarters (in St. Petersburg) to do some training.

Now I have to figure out how to pack for four weeks - it's pretty much a nightmare. 

Anybody know anything about St. Pete? 
I hear it's relatively close to the beach so I guess I have that going for me!

I have so much to do between packing and getting everything in order to be gone. for. so. long.

  1. I'll be in Tampa in 2 weeks!!! My BFF (who lives in Memphis) and I are staying in Clearwater Beach. That's really close to St. Pete! If you want to join us on the beach on the 6th...let me know!! :)

  2. Wow, four weeks is pretty long for a business trip! That's kind of cool, though, that you get to live a totally different kind of life for a whole month! I hope you have a good trip. :)

  5. It's hard to be away for that long, but I bet you'll have a great time!

    If you're looking for something to do on a weekend, I highly recommend the Manatee Viewing Center in Apollo Beach (south of Tampa). It's a swampy area by a power plant where manatees naturally congregate. You can see LOTS of them. I loved it!

  10. I have been living in a hotel for 13 weeks or so now. I don't envy you! At least you've got other co-workers going with you and it's near a beach so that should be awesome! :) Have a fun and safe trip lady!

  11. Oh wow! How exciting. (I lived in a hotel for a few years as a kid, so my only advice there is to make friends with the staff. haha) Have a great and safe trip!
