This weekend my husband and I decided at the last minute to head up to Napa for two days. We packed up our puppy and our things and escaped. It wasn’t until I was up there that I was reminded of the importance of getting away. Even though you think when you are in your routine that there isn’t a need to break out of it, once you do the benefits are enormous. There is something about change of scenery and a change of pace that does the soul good. Even Saidy, our dog, was smiling ear to ear! She had a whole new level of boundless energy and seemed to be soaking it all up. And for me, just to sit outside and play cards at 8 o’clock at night in warm weather was a treat!
I highly recommend that you also plan to “escape” soon. Even if it is just to go for a hike on Saturday afternoon. Get out of town. Explore. Escape.
