Vacation

It's 10:00 p.m. on Tuesday night. My bag is pretty much packed, the laundry is all done, the kitchen is cleaned up and homemade cookies are on the counter. Tomorrow I board a plane to Salt Lake City. It's my annual "sisters" trip. This was started many years ago.

I live in Washington State, two sisters live in Idaho and one sister in Utah. The sister in Utah is a school teacher. This is her spring break. I'll meet my two sisters from Idaho at the Salt Lake airport were my daughter will pick us up.

Then it's off to dinner with our cousin Russell. After dinner Natalie will drive us south of Salt Lake to Springville where we will stay with Nancy until Sunday afternoon.

While in Springville, we will eat, clean house, catch up laundry, run errands, eat some more, talk, read, watch movies and visit the local quilt shop. It's the ultimate girls vacation.

I'll also get to visit some friends and attend a wedding reception while I am there.

While I'm gone my husband and son have to fend for themselves. They don't really cook so it either has to be microwaved, boiled or fast food. They're adults so I don't worry about them. I do worry about the dog however since she can only do so much for herself and really does depends on others. But it's just 5 days and she can survive the minor inconvenience.

The moment I hit that airplane seat with my iPod and book in place, I will relax and enjoy whatever comes my way. I'll check in later and post pictures.
