Needless to say, it was amazing.
A "head clearing, releaxing, intoxicating, silly, loving, awesome" kind of amazing.
The weather was perfect ... the company was fantastic.
I never wanted to leave this fantasy world.
Alas, life crept up to me too soon and pulled me back in. While I am not thrilled with confronting the bills, arrangments for Josh's layoff and more ... having this break on the coast was an unexpected necessity.
Leaving was hard, but I walked away with a clear head and a rejuvenated spirit.
I felt like I could take on the world again. Something I feel we lose from time to time. Especially as life gets busier and harder. In the next upcoming weeks, I need to remember this feeling of calm and peace as I face new and bigger obstacles.

I knew it was never going to be easy - but it will be worth it.
Next week we leave to go to Vegas ... if I feel 1/2 as great coming home from it as I did from the Ocean, I think I'm going to do all right in the next few months.
