we packed up and heading to the mountains last week...it was so nice to just veg and not have one thing that we had to do.  we hiked and cooked and sat by the fire at night....it was just what the doctor ordered.  and then it was time to return to the real world: i came back w/ a cold, a suitcases full of dirty clothes, a pile of emails and work that i couldn't do b/c my ipad didn't have service (so if you are waiting for an email from me, it's coming!!)...happy monday, right?!!
