Cruisin'

Just got back from a fantastic 7 day cruise with my family. Not my children, mind you. My mom, 5 siblings & our spouses. Fantastic grown-up time. I've decided a cruise without children is the best way for a mom to take a vacation. No cooking, the room is cleaned 3 times per day, the only person to worry about it myself...and maybe the hubby too. We sat on the deck & read, sat on the beach in Aruba and got sunburned, saw whales in Dominica, snorkled on St. Thomas - it was truly spectacular. Got back Sunday evening. I think the kids were glad we were home. They were all alive & well, although the house had seen better days. I know my bed was made when I left! LOL

I'm so grateful for a wonderful mom who was able to do this for our family. You're the best!
