I love that and I still says that for Salty Virginia Peanats. I have no idea why.

But Salty says, Brian, what was the favorite part of your vacation cruise? Well, the favorite part was just being able to be around my family.

We didn't spend a ton of time together because I just wanted to kind of relax, but meaning like we weren't together all the time. but we did dinner every night, and it was my sister and her family weren't always there, but my parents are always there and Angela and I were always there. And that was, that was really nice. It got to see my uncle Bruce and several of my aunts were there. So that was nice. Some of my cousins haven't seen the one. And then, of course, hanging out my nieces and nephew was a lot of fun but then there's also a lot of times there's just ang and i doing stuff together and that's always nice you know where we're not at home we're not thinking of you know i was telling her she's like you know it's funny she actually worked a little bit during her cruise and she's like i was able to focus more on work when I was on the cruise, then I'm at home.

Why do you think that is?

And she was kind of upset about it and mad at herself for her. So, well, listen, when you're at home, you've got all these other things to think about because we're both business owners. We both work at home. And I was like, at home, you've got to worry about have the dogs gone out? Have they gotten their meds?

I mean, has Rita gotten her medicine?

Have they been fed?

You know, they have their, okay okay i want to be pet right now things you've got to deal with oh shoot i've got to get laundry done i've got to do dishes i've got to make dinner we both have those things and so there's just a lot more distractions when you're working from home than when you're just on a cruise ship where you don't have to worry about any of that. You don't have to worry about making your bed. Somebody else does that. You don't have to worry about cooking food or doing dishes. Somebody else does that. So it allows you to just kind of focus on it. And then, you know, that's really what it was. It's just that quality time, you know, being able to relax and just do nothing, man.

I'll tell you, salty, that was a real nice part. I just, you know, being able to sit on the top of the ship and look out of the ocean as I'm thinking through different business plan ideas and other things like that was really nice. Being able to just sit out on the balcony of the, of the ship, you know, from our room and just, just hear the waves crashing. So that's always been something that's very comforting. I have a tough time sleeping in quiet. I got to have a TV on. I got to have my, you know, something playing. I just, I even, even if something simple is a, a fan that's got some loudness. I, I have a hard time sleeping and quiet because when it's quiet, my mind works like overdrive and it's a, it sucks. But one thing that helps me is I'll put my YouTube, uh, put my YouTube on and, and I'll put on like

10 hours of like ocean waves or something like that. And that started so my, um, in between my

fresh, like end of my freshman year, summer my, after my freshman high school, uh, my family and I

had to move, uh, to a campground down by the beach because, you know, my, my, my, my, my, my family and I had to move to a campground down by the beach because, you know,

my, my, my dad had lost his job. And so him and my mom were working at this campground. I think it's

called Travel Park down in Virginia Beach. And so we actually, it's kind of wild. During the summer,

it's kind of cool. But, you you know so my sister and i stayed in the

tent we had like a bed dresser my parents slept in the van we had a pop or in the pop-up trader

outside of the van and it was cool during the summer because you know there's different people

different girls kind of every weekend it was it was a lot of fun and once that was over it was

it was a little bit tough and then eventually we got an efficiency apartment down, down by the beach and a little

tiny two bedroom efficiency apartment.

And I just would have trouble sleeping.
