What constitutes a bad week?
*working a long week
*behind on your house work
*being a Mother
*eating habits
*not enough exercise
*worried about aging parents
*LIFE????
All great answers, but! That was my week last week. Thanks to my wonderful Husband, Glenn was able to take me away none to soon.
I packed a bag for 2 nights, arraigned for Kadie to stay with Monica and June as Glenn took care of the rest.
Friday at 6pm I sat down into the MGB GT named PO and off we went. Two hours into the drive I was still pretty uptight and I knew I needed to unwind quickly if I or should I say we were going to have a fun time:) As I was having my "self talk", I looked over at Glenn I could see he was having the time of his life, driving to the middle of nowhere (to some people) cruising about 70 MPH all while smiling. As I turned my head back to the window my eyes caught sight of his blackberry sitting next to a 1974 car clock both displaying the same time but beating to two different drums. WOW, I thought if only life were that easy.
Relax Betty Relax - was what everything around me was saying, let me explain what I saw:
* 1 wild Turkey in the ditch
* A Badger running across the road
*bunches of wild birds
*cows grazing in the fields
*The Dog at Dairy Queen that was the size of a pony
*and not to forget the pony running in the pastures.
OK it working, I can't help but let out all the clutter I have been storing up in my head. We ended up somewhere we have been to multiple times each time better then the last. I would say it's one of our top 5 places to go because for the next 2 days we:
*swam at dawn, well early morning to most
*slept a lot
*ate well
*hiked
*drove the sports car, fast
*went on a picnic
*explored
*drank
*read while Glenn prepared all the meals
*enjoyed happy hour and/or hours
*watch a movie on my laptop
*swam at midnight
I feel very fortunate to live only 2 1/2 hours away from somewhere that can provide all of the above and almost cost us nothing but a good time!
None of this could ever happen without the love and support I receive no matter whats going on in my little world from my dear Husband, Glenn.
THANK YOU, GLENN &

This was a great post. I followed you through your misery of everyday life, into relaxation and what life should be like.. It was beautiful and it reminds me how much I need a vacation.
I totally agree with Debbie! Sigh - we need a vacation too. I'm glad you feel better after your trip, I know you had a bad week.
Debbie, I was touched by your comment. Amanda, I know and I am sorry but it's nice you live so close. Lets set up a time for Glenn and I to take Lucy for the night, we will be just fine. B
