Thanks!

Thank you dear blogging friends, for ALL of your support after my last post.

I will write more tomorrow, but wanted you all to know that I'm doing much better.

My dear hubby came home for lunch on Friday and said, "I've arranged for Gregg to come stay with the kids for the weekend.  So, find us a place to stay and let's take off for a few days."

We headed up to the mountains, through the blowing snow, and found the most wonderful Inn in Leavenworth (my most favorite get-away spot).  It had the warmth and hospitality of a Bed & Breakfast, with the privacy of a hotel.

We had a beautiful room with a king bed, a cozy fireplace, wireless internet (so I could read all of your wonderful comments), a t.v. w/ a dvd & vhs player (and a large collection of movies to borrow downstairs).

We had a WONDERFUL weekend of rest, relaxation, good food, fun shopping (not buying ... but shopping), an amazing movie (I'll write a review) and just TIME ... to be away, to be together, to process, to pray, to talk, to be silent in our thoughts.

When I would begin to feel a bit guilty about spending any money for a get-away (although we got a great deal), I would just remind myself that a weekend in Leavenworth is much cheaper than therapy.  So, I think I need to schedule these a bit more often.

Thanks again, for lifting me up with your support and prayers.

  3. What a blessing to have a husband who is able to see you need to get away and takes care of that. I'm glad you got a break from things to relax and reflect.
