Picture this: It's Wednesday night and I am staring at a pile of laundry higher than the empire state building and trying to find some bit of energy or motivation to tackle the huge overwhelming task when suddenly I get a phone call from my little sister who happens to work for Delta Airlines. She asks me what I was doing tomorrow and I start thinking of all of my exciting plans like grocery shopping, cleaning toilets, washing markers off the walls ect. She then asks, "How would you like to fly to Lagoona Beach for the day?" Are you serious, are you serious??? The next thing I know I am packing my swim suit in a over night bag and setting my alarm for a 6:00 flight. The fun started from the minute I picked her up at her house. We had VIP treatment at the airport because she was an employee and we sat in first class on the plane. When we went to pick up the car and she had reserved the cutest little red convertible. We drove to the beach with the wind blowing in our hair and not a care in the world. Our hotel room faced the ocean and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I felt like I haden't seen the ocean forever so it was such a joy for me. We had the best girl time shopping, getting massages, sitting on the beach, going out for sushi, then ice cream, then got in the jacuzzi, then fell asleep listening to the ocean. The next morning that cute little red convertible was turned in to the car rental return and we were back on a plane home to my little ones. I can't thank Sheri enough for giving me the perfect little mom break. Now somehow that load of laundry doesn't look so bad.
I can't feel better
