We Bought a Farm: My Six Week Break

I LOVE MY LIFE. 

But my life makes me tired.

And I need breaks.

I have decided that getting out weekly with girlfriends is not always possible.

And a regular date night with my husband isn't either.

But every 6 to 8 weeks, I can get at least one day and hopefully one night off.

I have planned these with special people in my life.

Friendships that I am invested in and want to continue to nurture.

My friend Michelle has been my friend since we were five-years-old.

We were the maid/matron of honor in each other's wedding.

We are connected for life.

I love her.

She now lives just five hours from me.

(That's close in USA distance!)

So we met for a nice and a delightful Bed & Breakfast about 2.5 hours from both of us.

Here is a photo of us at a dinner for just grown-ups:

The only issue was that I had NO idea the country roads I would be traveling were so bad. It wasn't snowing by me. It wasn't snowing where I was going. But apparently it was snowing between here and there:

When I pulled into town, some guy stopped me and asked where I had been. I couldn't figure out why he asked that until I got out and saw the mess of my truck. (I was SO glad I had taken the truck!)

So thankful for my "Tier 1" people.

The women in my life who are in my intimate circle.

They are "my people."

I love them.

While I did get the flu right after this trip ...

It was a BLAST!
