Good bye May! Hello June!
We were running on fumes. Running on empty, really. May was the month of madness {how do you like THAT alliteration?}. Steve traveled for work a lot. Seemed he was gone a couple of days each week. All while I organized, cleaned, and minimized the house in effort to get it ready for the market by the beginning of June. Add on to that, the blog every day in May challenge. It really put a damper on my schedule. But, I was determined to complete the task at hand. I can proudly say I worked my rear end off. When the last week of May FINALLY rolled around, I took a step back to admire all that I{we} had accomplished. Organized whole house top to bottom? Check. Successfully hosted our out of country friends for a weekend? Check. Blog every day in May? Check{well, almost...I had to play catch up after said friends departed}. Had a home cooked meal ready for Steve every night? Fail. Sorry, hon. Cooking was at the very bottom of the to-do list.
Needless to say, we were very much anticipating a weekend away to the beach. We had been craving some uninterrupted relaxation. And, what better way to do that than soaking up the sun, eating a lot of good food, and sleeping in? Sometimes, it's just so worth it to spend the money in order to get away and experience some real R&R. I'm still basking in the glorious feeling of sitting on the sand, with a book in my hand and the sun beating down on my skin. Glorious. We had perfect weather, too. For that I am very thankful. It was just perfect in so many ways. In fact, its been a long time since Steve and I got away just the two of us. It was long overdue to get some quality one on one time with the hubby. No dog to worry about...no floors to clean...no grass to mow...no worries about our to-do list. It was magical. Even in little Rehoboth Beach. Just shy of a three hour drive away.
Hopefully June will be less hectic and more peaceful. Even if we can't get away for a weekend again, I was reminded how vital it is to invest time with just yourself and your spouse. The cooking can wait... ;)
