I'm here! Slept like a baby during the flight (not gin and tonic, Kwiz, but a few grams of Xanax). Spoke to my mom before I boarded and she's feeling much better, and breathing much better today. I'll check in with her again tomorrow, as I can sense she thinks I'm being "bossy." (Moi?)
The suite is more sumptuous than I'd imagined. The staff is generous and friendly (and my favorite waitress remembered me from last year). I am now prepared to pig out on healthy spa food, watch Idol, and prepare for a day of being buffed and massaged and exfoliated.
Thanks for thinking of me, Kwiz and Vivian and Sparkela. It's so nice to be so honest on this blog and get such support in return. I appreciate your kindnesses more than you know.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
YEY! You are officially on 'fucking vacation' WOOO HOOO!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy yourself, Missy. Go get rubbed by strangers and have a wonderful time.
Me? I'll have Cookie stories to share with all on Saturday. I found cool boots to wear so I don't look like Couger-ella! hah
Have fun!
Thinking of you (and/or someone else from whom I can steal!)
It's vicarious living. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI am still not speaking to you because you are on vacation and I am not. Still pouting. Bah!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Just kidding.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a marvelous time.
Glad to hear good words about your mom; hope you are having too much fun, sleepin' in and de-stressing!
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear you are there and having a "relaxing time."
ReplyDeleteYes we all wish we could be there!!
Enjoy every minute!!!
