Our weekend away…

I had a very weird weekend. So much happened and nothing happened. I enjoyed quiet time immensely. I miss that. It is different to have that quietness away from home, in a very cold room with comfy blankets and nothing around that reminds me of a list of endless tasks awaiting my attention.

I enjoyed a bit of shopping. I have a reputation as an shopaholic. This is true to some degree, it is accurate of me in the past. Josh is not a tolerant child that allows me to stroll through a mall. So over the last years this has changed. When I mentioned it to Sanj, He said, “people say that because your eyes light up when you talk about shopping”. Fair enough. I do enjoy shopping, but wish others would understand that there are many other sides to my personality. I love shopping for others, my famly, surprising them with a little something. Besides, shopping for a family of 8 naturally makes you a shopaholic.

The spa part was nice, but left me with a little too much free time and trapped at a golf course with no means of escape. I did get a lot of reading done. But wished I had thought to bring the laptop, blogging would have been great.

I mostly enjoyed being with Sanj. Of course this was a business trip, so I found myself having to sharing him with half the world of hearing specialists.

What I enjoyed most was reconnecting with Sanj. Last night we had such a heart to heart. It was so good. We talk all the time but sometimes we don’t have time to ‘really talk”. I love him so much. I am so blessed to have him in as part of my life.

I am growing each day, and making new discoveries about myself. I want to be free of the past yet learn to embrace what the past has made me today.

It was a good weekend. I am now back to reality. Wonder what we can do next weekend?
