Ditched the snow and took princess pants 👸🏼👖 to Mexico.
I do one-on-one trips with my kids every few weeks.
Took my oldest to San Diego two weeks ago. Went surfing at noon, and skateboarding at midnight on the boardwalk.
Next up was my daughter, and she wanted to go to Mexico. She’s been a few times over the years and wanted to go just us.
I grew up never flying. First time I took a plane was when I was 21… to a hole in the wall small town… for work.
Now, I fly so much I’ve realized I take it for granted. Ask me what I’ve done lately and I’d say “nothing much.”
In reality, I’ve been to San Diego, the Gatsby Mansion in Texas, and Xcaret in Cancun twice… in the last three weeks.
Something in me feeds off constantness. Only recently acknowledged that, so trying to slow down. Even the fun stuff.
Already had my daughter’s trip planned, but don’t have any travel planned after this until next year.
I need more of nothing. More stillness.
Kind of an interesting place to be. The older I get the more I welcome these new phases I can tell are needed. I used to feed off of how much I could keep going. Now I know slow = fast.
This trip was a nice mix of sun and rain. Wild rain. Tropical storm rain.
I let my daughter lead. We kayaked, visited a Mayan village, swam, swam some more, snorkeled, slid down octopus shaped waterslides, took a gondola and shopped for her brothers (every time I travel with one of my kids, they buy surprises for their siblings).
Near the Mayan village they had a clay activity where my daughter was able to mold her own turtle.
One thing I didn’t do was work. I am good about not working with my kids, but the moment she passed out early I REALLY wanted to work. Back to that constantness, it’s a muscle memory I’m trying to break.
She passed out Friday night so I was going to watch the Paul/Tyson fight. But even that was “something,” so after 5 minutes I just turned everything off and sent some flirty messages to Hottie before passing out. 💋
Excited to get back to my hobby of entrepreneurship with a clear mind.
