A Weekend Away

The necklace came to me at a perfect time.  This weekend I had a four day weekend.  My FIL called on Tuesday asking us if we had any plans this weekend and invited us up to their camp house in Stony Creek, NY.  I had been beginning to feel in a rut and I figured this was just the break that I needed to feel a little better.

The necklace arrived on Thursday, just in time to come on my trip with me.  We left on Friday after work and Evey slept most of the way out.  We surprised MIL and SIL, they did not know we were coming.

Saturday we went to Queensbury and ate at a restaurant called the Harvest, which Rachel Raysays has the best pizza.  My FIL is an awesome cook and made many homemade meals for us.  We stopped quickly at the outlets on Sunday and I got Evey 6 long sleeve shirts and a Christmas dress for $41 at the Children's Place.  We went to Martha's for ice cream and MIL fed Evey a couple licks of pumpkin ice cream.  She loved it.

Today I have off and sent Evey to daycare.  It has been great being able to do a bunch of things for myself that I have not been able to do in so long.  I got to just sit and catch up on my TV, read the Hunger Games, and the walk to the post office to mail the necklace was nice.


The necklace and the break away from the normal routine has really helped to lift my spirits again.  I hope that the necklace  brings some happiness to everyone else.
