A GOOD LONG DAY

I know it's been a few days since I posted. 

I took a weekend to "check-out" for a few days with some girlfriends. We went to the desert town of La Quinta.  Friday night, we walked to down to a favorite mexican restaurant and shared an appetizer plate for dinner.  

We slept in Saturday morning, savored our coffee and hotel breakfast and then enjoyed a relaxing Saturday in the pool, lounging, sipping ice cold drinks, chatting, reading magazines and simply having the best longest day I can remember.  We all remarked that the day seemed to last forever and since we were having such a good day, we were very thankful that time slowed to a crawl for us.

Sunday morning, we slept in even later, ate our breakfast outside on the patio and enjoyed some more poolside time before heading home.  One last stop on our drive home--the outlet mall outside of Palm Springs for a bit of shopping.

It was so nice to have a couple of days with no agenda to follow or appointments to meet.  

But now back to the real world...work and appointments call my name.  It was fun while it lasted!

That sounds great! I love the new blog layout by the way. I need to do something with mine because half of it disappeared randomly!

That sounds heavenly. A weekend with the girlfriends, with nothing to do but lounge, chat and shop? Heavenly.
