Jeremy ended up having last week off from rotations since
the Dr. he is rotating with was out of town. He said he had a
surprise in the works. I wondered what it could
be...would it be a family get away? Would he find someone to
watch the kids and he and I could go somewhere?
All I was told was to get a bag ready. So I did.
Kailyn, Jovie, and Jeremy came out of the room and presented me
with a stuffed envelope that said "Get Away for a Queen because that's what you are!"
(This is the part where everyone says "Ahhh.") And believe me I did.
I was told to drive to 81 S and then open the envelope to find
out where I was headed and then open the other envelopes
when I wanted to. Can you believe that I actually waited
until I got to the 81 S to open envelope #1?
Smoky Mountain Resort & Spa was my destination.
Once I got to the resort, which is about an hour from home,
I opened all the rest of the envelopes.
Jeremy said I deserved this because I was a single mom the
last month while he was in Nevada and
will be the next 2 months as he studies for Boards.
I was blown away...I don't feel like I deserve this.
I have a hard time spending money on myself but Jeremy
specifically said that the deal was that I needed to return home with all envelopes empty.
So here is the Hotel
Dinner for me!!
The next morning I laid by the pool
Went to the Outlets nearby
And went to the spa for a relaxing massage!!
Then I called Jeremy and asked him if he and the kids would come out
So they did. We went to dinner and then hung out in the Hotel room
This is what Boone does when Jeremy says "Boone" in a really deep voice.
Jovie climbing around
Oh yeah and we ate ice cream cake
The next morning we played by the pool
At first I wasn't sure how I felt about going
all by myself...I wanted my family with me or some girlfriends, but I trusted Jeremy
and went. And it was REALLY nice to not have to worry about
taking care of anyone else. I got to eat dinner without having
to cut up someone else's food or take someone to the bathroom
or clean up spills. I got to sleep through the night!
I don't know what I did to deserve Jeremy.
Whatever it was...I'm sure glad I did it. ;)
