The Weekend


In front of the fire, one of my favorite places to be!

My Honey Girls weekend was fantastic!  My friends and I danced, drank, ate, drank, went to the spa, drank, and went snow tubing.  Snow tubing was probably the highlight of the weekend, with Clara's awesome dinner on Friday night and a flash of Diana's reconstructed breasts.  WEEEE!  It was wonderful to get to see everyone and get to know them just a little bit better.

A couple of personal demons were aired throughout the weekend which was probably to be expected.  Girls want to talk, just to talk, and get some things off their chests and to get some advice from people they trust.  I was honored to be a part of many of these conversations and hope my input helped.

I came home exhausted, having accomplished nothing I had intended.  Sleeping in and catching up on my magazines just didn't happen, but my sense of self was back.  So often many moms feel like they are moms and wives first and forget about themselves.  It was the reason I had such a difficult time leaving to begin with.  With my cancer scare happening right before my weekend away, I was even more aware of how badly I needed to be "Sarah".  It was perfect.  I felt whole.

Thank you to all the girls.  I hope you had as fabulous a time as I did.

It was a great weekend. I too came home with unread magazines and books, but that's ok. :)
