Well, the time has come for my annual hunting trip with my best pal Becky. We are in search of the almighty beach and sunshine. Yes, we are leaving behind our families and the snow...but we are hopefully coming back a little refreshed and ready to survive the rest of winter. I have learned a few things over the past week about myself........
1. I have the hardest time trying to decide what I want to wear 2-3 days from now. Which means, that I am an over packer.
2. Being that I don't know what I want to wear translates into me not packing until the last possible moment which means as of 10:30pm, I just finished packing for my trip. (we leave at 6:40am)
3. Everyone kept asking me if I was excited for my vacation. My honest answer was "No, I really haven't had time to think about it." I've mentioned it many times in conversations with other but the overall excitement of going somewhere new hasn't hit me yet. I guess I will answer that question better tomorrow night when I'm there!
4. I am taking this trip to get some 'me time' and attempt to slow down my brain and body for a few days. I will miss my children and husband but- I will guarantee that every time I see a Mom with her kids, I will wish my children were there with me. Every time I see a couple holding hands, I will wish Kirby was there with me. With these kinds of thoughts it will be tough to just STOP-and think of only myself. I am considering making a rule with Becky that we can't talk about our children or husbands... Any bets on if that would happen? :)
So, here's to a good time and nice weather! Becky and I are renting a car and will travel to whatever part of the state that has sunshine and warm temps! :)
