#152......Oh My Lord

     I have been suffering, within.   My husband, and I,  came home from, Jamaica, about a month ago.
It was a magnificent vacation.  But for some reason, I ache within.   I want to go back.
     The water, and the beach, at our resort, was so beautiful.  Crystal blue, bathtub warm.
     Oh my sweet Lord, thank you so much,  for granting us such beauty.   Thank you, my Lord,
for such a wonderful husband, and such wonderful experiences at Couples Swept Away Resort.

#151.......The Joy of Jamaica

     My husband and I, recently took a vacation, to a resort in Jamaica.   It was something that we have never done before.   We have taken a few mini trips, like business trips.  They were  not true vacations.
     Before our vacation to Jamaica, I was headed for a "crash & burn", a real breakdown.
I have had trouble sleeping, often getting up in the middle of the night, to go downstairs to watch television and think.  Sometimes, I would wake up, very confused, saying to my husband, Frankie, "Who are you?".
     I had trouble eating, my upper GI issues, were acting up.   Basically, my stomach was burning, and food was coming up and out of my nose, during my sleep, waking me up.
     I had been vomiting frequently,   In fact, 4 nights before our flight to Jamaica, I was very sick, and we discussed, cancelling our vacation.  I also missed work, on 1 day.
      As we were going through security at the airport, I ran for a trash barrel, and could not stop vomiting.  On the plane, I got sick several times, also.
     But once we finally arrived in Jamaica, I stopped shaking, I stopped vomiting, I had a totally different demeaner.  In fact, we went to an amazing buffet, at one of the resorts amazing restaurants, and  my belly felt so much better.   I felt so relaxed.
      Our vacation, with the wonderful resort, and the beautiful ocean, cleansed me.  We want to go there again, only, stay longer.   We have friends who recommended this resort to us.
     Before, this vacation, I spent a lot of time, thinking about my horrible father, and his fucked up family, who accept his sexual abuse.  I ached inside, I miss them so badly, believe it, or not.
     But in Jamaica, these thoughts were gone.  I didn't want to leave Jamaica.  It was quite painful.
I am home now, and still feel a bit of sunshine in my soul.
     I just want to say thank you, to everyone, who made it possible to go to Jamaica, and
Couples Swept Away Resort.
