This Just In...



While sitting in the hot tub tonight reading my new Woman's Day magazine I came across this study:

Women who take time off once every two years have a higher risk of DEPRESSION than those who vacation more regularly, says The National Institute for Occupational and Health. A getaway reduces ANXIETY, STRESS and ANGER, and even stimulates the production of CALMING brain chemicals, says some PhD/CEO of The Stress Institute (did ya'll know there was such a place? Sign me up!)

Share this with your husbands. Lets plan a trip. It really is in their best interest for us to do so!

By the way Honey...If you're reading this I just booked a flight to Dallas. Cuz I need a break. K?

And...Allen, Texas...I'm headed your way I'll be there August 22-25. I'll email you the details.

AND.I.CAN'T.WAIT!

I totally believe this. I always need an excursion to look forward to, however small, every quarter AT LEAST. Whether it's a weekend away or just a whole day in a different town. Or a day like yesterday when I took a mental health day from work & drank grapefruit margaritas with my girlfriend 2 miles away!!!!!

I firmly believe this. And, I also firmly believe that it will help my sanity to head down there for a weekend!!!! Let me just inform the Mister.
