"Sometimes, Chilling is what the body needs"

Yesterday, I returned to work from a very long holiday weekend. I was in class for 2 days last week and the remainder of the time, I was off. I must say that the long weekend was just what I needed. My man and I had planned to do a variety of things, which included going out of town but that never happened. We had been discussing just getting away for the last month or more, but once the weekend got here, we end up just chilling the whole weekend-except for Monday). The both of us are on our grind right now so any free time we can get is always welcomed.
Friday-Sunday was just TV, eating, sleeping....we did a few things around the house but overall, just chilling. I started getting crazy by Sunday evening and I was getting cabin fever so...Monday, we decided to get out and do something. That day started with a trip to Wiconsin Avenue(Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Ralph Lauren, Banana Republic....) and then we went to Georgetown(I'm so bored with this place right now) and then to Alexandria, VA(reminds me alot of downtown Annapolis). We had dinner at the Chart House and just did the boyfriend/girlfriend thing-lol. The evening ws summed up with a trip to Cold Stone Creamery and bed. I was
T-I-R-E-D.
Tuesday was another chill day. Just some cleaning up and chilling. I realized that I hadn't gone to not one cookout or for that matter, I didn't even have one so, I decided to put some food ont he grill on Tuesday.
I returned to work yesterday with a pile of work on my desk. I sat and thought about how I was appreciative of the chill time I had over the weekend because I was well rested. Everyone returned to work with all the stories of what they did over the holiday. All I could really say was, I chilled...but that's ok with me, because I realize now that I really needed it.
