The Case of the Missing Toothbrush

Posted on by

En Route to Sail Cay – Dec 7, 2021

Our life has changed a lot over the last 18 months.  We have become empty nesters after raising 4 daughters, sold our suburbia homestead, bought a boat & lived on it for 6 weeks, downsized storage units once, Moved ourselves or our kids 8 times, quit our jobs after 30 years, and now we are back on the boat having left the country.  When you make this many changes in a short amount of time you tend to misplace a few things.  Trust me on this one.


It’s a no wonder really.  I am showing my weakness at packing and organizing since I have to find my electric toothbrush.  Don’t read this as I have not brushed my teeth.  Come on I know your mind went there. I do own and use a regular one.  It’s a no wonder really.  In our provisioning efforts I tried to buy enough health & beauty items and I think we now have something like 9 health and beauty containers from bread box size & larger. 

We will see what else comes up MIA.

About Ron C

Hi, I'm Sally and this is my husband, Ron. I’ve been doing marketing for the last 30 years for tech companies and Ron is a biomedical engineer. Basically, he knows what he is doing and well, I don't. However, the yin and yang of our relationship is total bliss. We decided after 10 years of marriage, the joy of suburbia, and years of travelling, that this was for us. So, we saved, retired, and this is our story. We’ve taken trips to Costa Rica and love it. Nowhere on earth can you see that many masonry animal statues and not a pothole crew in site. Beautiful. Then there was Jamaica where the night before we left, I broke my big toe and was not able to go into the water. Instead, we experienced the most amazing singing bartender while drinking "Shit on the Grass." No lie. Then there was British Virgin Islands where we chartered a boat three times. Twice with just us and the final time with our 4 daughters. Man, there is no better way to hear your kids complain than in a space that small. That was some quality family time there. Now we are empty nesters, we have purchased a Leppard Catamaran and you are invited to come along for the ride. Should be a total hoot.
