I'm taking a week off..!!
      #502545 - 07/11/2009 10:37

...and visiting my brother and his wife in New Jersey!! Have discussed with OH and business partner and I'm taking a week off at the start of December. Ithink I need it. I booked a ticket to the states Yayyy!
The show will go on without me and hopefully I will come back raring to go again. A big thanks to all the ladies who gave me such support on recent down days when I wasn't feeling good. Working through and getting there hopefully

A week in sunny (cold!) New Jersey is just what I need I think and I haven't seen my brother and his wife since before her cancer diagnosis three years ago. Going alone just me and I'm really looking forward to it now.
might even get a day or two in New York to shop and see the sights as he lives 40 miles from the city.

Its been a tough year and I need this break. Here's to happier times ahead.

Way to go girl................... after all the stress you have dealt with recently it will do you a power of good to be on your own for a few days. Give you chance to do some thinking and have a nice rest with no responsibilities at all.

Have a great time with your brother and if you manage to get to NY enjoy the retail therapy.

Tell us all about it when you return.................. have fun.

A trip on your own to see family will do you the world of good August and you'll feel far less stressed when you return. A great time of year to go shopping in NY, fantastic City and fab shops what more does a girl need when she goes away!!!

I'm so glad you have done this august09. I really think you need to get away and have a good think over things away from the actual situation. Have a wonderful time.
