"I'm on break." Love the way that sounds. So 1950's! But you know what? I'm on break for the whole weekend. Why? Well, in October my husband had a 13-day business trip overseas and it nearly did the kids in. We powered through, but I was very emotionally and physically tired when he returned. So this weekend I am refilling my energy tank here in Sonoma by myself. Lots of rest, unscheduled time, and no need to plan or multi-task whatsoever. For a mother of two young children, this is almost an obscene pleasure.
Right now I'm going to talk a little walk outside, grab a cinnamon bun, and browse in a bookstore -- and I will be enjoying every single second of it.
My husband deserves an enormous thank-you for being so cheerful and uncomplaining when I announced I was decamping for a weekend. THANK YOU!!!
