Recharged

I had my yearly Girl's Getaway weekend in Gruene, Tx.  Something about being in the Tx Hill Country really sets my soul at ease.  My Sister in Law (we hate the in law part - makes it seem like we don't like each other so we both decided to just say sister!) and I got there Friday afternoon - it was the most relaxed the both of us have been in a while. We had no where to be, no one to please - just her and I!  It is rare I get to have a dinner outside (with a beautiful scenery) and sit for over an hour without any distractions. The other girls came up on Saturday and then the rest was full of memories to last a lifetime!

 The daily life of a Mom, wife, employee, friend, daughter, niece the list can keep going but you always stretch yourself so thin so for me this trip was more than just a weekend getaway - it was a time for me to get recharged!  I never thought about my life needing to be recharged like a battery - but it does - I always said Mommy time is good for everyone involved, but this time it was different.  It might be the fact my kids are getting older, my job is getting more tiresome, my life is getting more hectic - not that I am unhappy at all - My Blessings are overflowing! I just needed some time to just be me and not worry about anything or anyone - I gues just be selfish!  By me being selfish this weekend gave me a chance to let laughter, shopping, live music, cold beer, hill country view, and good friends made my battery get back to 100%!
