Thursday May 15, 2008
We all know that change is challenging. Even those of us that can roll with most punches need a break sometimes when dealing with tumultuous times...which is why I'm taking tomorrow off and getting away.
Yup, I haven't spent much, if any time, blogging about this. It's a tough time, but in the end it will all be good.
Bottom line: Ski season for the most part is over now, and it's time to move onto warm weather activities such as Mountain Biking. And, while I love a good ride, I sure do miss skiing. And, 6 months from now I'll be transitioning again...back and forth, back and forth. Even the most laid back Mountain Girl can get a bit blue about all this. So, something must be done.....
This level of change absolutely requires a girls weekend away at a Hot Springs Spa. (woo hoo for me!!!)
Sooo, tomorrow my friend E and I will head to Glenwood Spring, about 3 hours west of Boulder. We've booked rooms at the Hotel Colorado, a really gorgeous historical hotel right at the hot springs pools. We plan on hiking, biking, getting spa treatments and dining well. I'm sure there will be hours and hours of girl talk, soup to nuts. Lots of laughing, being silly and hopefully turning ourselves into limp noodleettes.....so relaxed and so mellow we can't barely lift a finger. Except to signal our waiter for a glass of Chardonnay.
Don't feel bad for me, just be thankful that you aren't facing such a challenging time (this is a JOKE people...I'm not being serious.).....
Hang in there, Mountain Girl! And enjoy your weekend away. It sounds wonderful.
