Ahhhhhh Long Weekend

It amazes me.  I was sitting at my desk on Monday, unable to keep my eyes open and praying Friday would come in a hurry.  I needed a weekend, even though I just had one!

And now it's Thursday night, I made it through another week, heaven only knows how, and I should be packing but instead I am on here catching up.

Tomorrow we head out to Tofino.  I can't wait to see the beach, to walk the beach, to chill and read a book.

Kent and I haven't had any time off to speak of for almost 3 years, except for the odd long weekend.  I am getting pretty tired.

After this weekend our next break is coming in October with a trip to England and Scotland.  The beginnings of plans are in place.

The best part of this?

We have people in the house to care for Pippin, Blackberry and Socks.  I don't have to worry about the house, Max is here and becoming a great mature young man.

We are in no hurry.  We can take 3 hours to get to Tofino, or 7.  It doesn't matter.

And I get time with Kent.  All to myself.

I can feel the stress and hurry of life melting off me.  I can't wait to be on MacKenzie Beach.
