With all of this talk about Thanksgiving, I haven't really mentioned our after Thanksgiving plans; and no it's not shopping, well not the focus anyway. We're driving out to Colorado Springs for a few days where Mike has to go to a conference. It's pretty much just a bonus kind of trip for me; not something I to do but oh so much fun. We have a super nice rental car to drive, with XM radio. And when we get there we get to stay at the Broadmoor; check it out online, it's not just a hotel, it's a resort and it's amazing. And we get to stay for free. And there's a lap pool!!!!!!Heated, outdoor, at the foot of the mountains. :D Then there's all of the many fun things to do in Colorado, not the least of which is Focus on the Family and the full gamut of coffee shops. So, I'm pretty excited. And so grateful for the chance to go. On top of that, I lost 2.4 lb. over Thanksgiving. Haha, that took a miracle. I really think my metabolism finally kicked in. I was thinking as I packed how much more fun this trip is since I am comfortable with my body. For instance the swimming and the wearing of nice clothes in a nice hotel; all things that would've depressed me if I wasn't where I am now. So thankful that I can enjoy dressing up and not feel dumpy and out of place while we're there. Packing is no longer so depressing.
So, I need to go finish and get out the door. I'll hopefully have time to write while we're there.
sounds like a fun trip! that's nice you get to ride along with mike and enjoy everything while he's at the conference. too bad you're so far south in colorado, but i'll be in iowa soon. :-)
