by plannerchick ~ so i know it's been awile since i posted, but i have been on a wonderful vacation. social chick and i were in orlando for 3 wonderful days. we tagged along with her mother and grandmother (mom was there for a reading conference).
we did nothing but sit by the pool, eat, and shop, (and snuggle with social chicklet) it was absolute bliss. i forced myself to forget about all responsibility for those 3 days, which being planner chick and all, can be pretty hard for me to do.
this trip was one of those times in life that God just said here, i know you need it. see, my life has been on fast forward to the umpteenth power lately. i was just forcing myself to do everything that had to be done both at work, and home.
a blog that i wrote back in july talked about how i just wanted to get away for a while and forget about it all. the funny thing is i never actually told that to God, He just know (well obviously), and took care of me.
it's something that seemed so trivial to ask for, that to be honest i never really considered it. yet He still took care of me. the love of the Father, how lucky i am to have it. this simple trip meant more to me than i can say. i needed it beyond words.
i am back at work today, but either life has calmed down or i have. i'm going to go with the latter, since the former never, ever seems to happen.
oh, and thanks to mama social/singer chick for letting this tired, worn out girl tag along and rejuvinate, and thanks to social for asking me!
here is a pic of my vacation paradise (it really was the nicest place i have ever stayed)
well, rub it in why don't ya'!
just kidding . . .
glad you had a great time. it is beautiful. nothing like recharging the batteries. i have a feeling at this pace i will be soon holding my breath until october!!

Is this the Rosen Shingle Creek or Gaylord Palms? I was at the Ritz here in Sarasota for a conference this week so I was with you on the luxury thing :)
