A good trip

I'm bored with my winter sweaters!  How many years have I had most of them?  And my new ones were bought because they fit and looked pretty good on me - not because I love them.  (I know - it's a sad and tragic tale.)  But winter is almost over - there's only 2 more months of sweater wearing even here in Colorado.  

Solution!  I took a little trip to Goodwill and for the price of one sweater at a regular store, even on clearance prices, I bought three!  Lovely and fun!  Just a little treat for myself this time of year.  Now if only I could find pants there, but I haven't had any luck with that yet.  

I'm leaving for Buena Vista tomorrow.  A little holiday all by myself in the mountains.  Stay in a nice B&B, read books, watch movies at night, knit and relax looking out at the amazing beauty.  I'm going to take my hiking boots just in case it's not too cold and there's not 2 feet of snow. Probably won't use them, but I'll be sad if I don't even try.  I'm going to take a small cooler with lunch stuff - cheese, bread, wine, fruit - so I'll only eat out a couple of meals at the most.  This will be great rest and relaxation for me.  I wish hubby was coming, but he just can't take 3 days off work.  

Once again, I realize how lucky, how fortunate I am to not have to work - to have a husband who appreciates me enough as "just" a hausfrau that what I do at home (and out of it) is worthwhile to him.  An amazing gift.  I'm very thankful.
