Me Time

I just returned from a 4 day/3 night work conference. I was about an hour and half away from home and the conference itself went really well. The conference was for people all over our state and I was the only one from on county going. I did not know a soul. Most if the day we were in classes, but that was not the fun part. I had a hotel room by myself the entire time. It was great! I don't think I have ever in my life spent any time away from home by myself. At first, I thought about bringing Richie, but he had to work. Then I thought about taking my Mom, but after seeing my schedule I didn't think it would be worth it. I went to class and went back to my room, checked emails, ordered food and just did whatever I wanted! Bonus: my bed was made for me, the room was cleaned and fresh towels were placed in the bathroom. I realized that although this trip was work related, it felt more like a mini vacation. Now, that I am home and back to reality- I am off to do laundry! :-)
