Relax and Energize

It is time to now just relax and energize for the rest of the week. Last week end was moving, then cleaned all week long at old place and new place. Then spent Friday, all day, and part of Saturday to get ready for the annual slumber party at my friend's house [which just happens to be where I am living now; temporary].

She has this slumber party every year for the past five years. About 10 of us get together and just get away from life for a night of fun and games. The women are married, single, or divorced-some have kids, some do not. But it is a chance to just get away from home. I started coming when I still lived in Denver. I would fly in from Denver to Phoenix, and one year flew in from Tulsa to Phoenix, and I would stay the week end, but now that I live in Arizona, I would just stay the night.

So the party was last night, we had food, oh my gosh did we have food, a lot of wine and beer, huge fire in the pit out back. We played some silly games. We watched the movie Hangover and laughed out loud. Got to bed at around 2 AM, up at 8 AM for coffee and chocolate croissants. Now the party is over, everyone has gone home. We cleaned up again and now resting.

Usually, I would go home but I live here now, so I am hiding away in my room, blogging, and then will get on with my comp. paper and math project. You know even though I am living here, it still does not feel like home to me. It feels like I am just staying for the week end and will pack soon to go home. But not gonna happen. I need to stay here maybe 6 months. So I need to get on with acceptance of my living situation and make the best of it.

But the party was fun.
