Hey hey ya'll! So I am back from my CALS gone wild weekend!
I can't believe I pulled the whole thing off--and so sad it is all over...
Started early on Tuesday and decided to play hooky and go to the beach for the day. then Wednesday wrapped things up at work and headed out . got a pedicure, went to my friend's house for dinner and next day hit a theme park (I do live in Orlando) . left for the wedding weekend the next morning--flew out to North Carolina. So fun! went shoe shopping, got lost driving on country back roads, hiked a great trail for about 2 hours, played in the hotel pool, made several new friends. Oh yeah the wedding was so moving an beautiful--I cried of course. then the reception! I only had one drink because I was too busy dancing! I danced and danced and danced and sang and laughed and just plain acted crazy and silly. I didn't care what anyone thought and it was perfect! (it helped that I had a killer dress and beautiful new shoes) the next day I was driving back with my bestie and we decided to stop in Savannah which is half way from the wedding to our home. Spur of the minute, got a great deal on a very fancy hotel with a roof top bar, then took a self guided walking tour the next day for a few hours, shopped and ate a leisurely lunch. got home last night and now it is back to the grindstone!
I have to say, I really didn't want to come back....the good news is that husband was fine, everyone stepped up and did what they were suppose to do! so I am a happy girl
