Life and Whatnot

Time to retreat


I work at a church bookstore…a really big church’s bookstore, so we’re super busy. I love it. Every year they pack us all up into a few buses and ship us up north toward Williams, AZ.

I missed last year because I was taking care of my MIL, Lynn, but this year, I got to go.

Sure was interesting. Beautiful scenery and lots of free time to play, read or just relax.

And relax I did. No workouts, no work, no nothing…It was nice.

I’ve not slept in a bunk bed for years. It was pretty fun! Made me feel like a kid again.

What do you think of retreats? Do you take one every year? What helps you recharge?

      LOL. I hear ya. This one was fun to get away from the heat here in Phoenix. Got some relaxation and reading in, so it’s all good!

    I didn’t know you worked in a church bookstore!
    If the retreat involves individual rooms, I can do it, but otherwise not hip on sleeping in a room with a bunch of other people.

      Yeppers. We have 19,000+ members, so the bookstore is very big as you can imagine. I love it. Even though I don’t write Christian Fiction, it’s a great fit. I love books and I love hanging out with book lovers! 🙂 Nope, we had TWELVE girls in our room. It was fun! LOL
