It's been pretty quiet around here hasn't it. I didn't feel well all last week and as it turns out there was a good reason for that; my old friend pneumonia. Went to the allergist on Friday and she confirmed what I already knew. So, it's big drugs (I'm safe if there is an anthrax outbreak, phew) and lots of doing nothing. Amazing Husband has been his usual wonderful self taking good care of me. Lousy way to spend a holiday weekend, but you take what you're given.
The good news......we've decided to take another trip to Minnesota in October. We've been living on a pretty tight budget this year and I didn't think we would be able to vacation at all, but AH got a promotion and corresponding raise, so we put out heads together, got creative and it's wagons north to Grand Marais! I can not tell you how happy this makes me. When he made the call for a hotel reservation I actually cried. We'll be staying in our favorite place AND (this is huge) in our favorite room. If you click the picture so you can see it larger, our favorite room is the top corner window on the third floor. The views are perfection. The folks at East Bay Suites are so kind to us and offered us a deal we couldn't say no to. Four days of feeding my spirit in the Minnesota breeze is exactly what I need right now. Good incentive to get well. I'll have to step up the walking so I'm in good hiking shape. I can hardly wait. Last time we visited during those dates it snowed!!
Hope everyone is having a lovely 3 day weekend. Summer is almost over!!!!!
I am envious. With a capital E. Still trying to get DH moving for a trip to visit Wenders and DS and DDil. sigh.
