We're back and it ends up the drive wasn't as bad as we thought it would be. Friday afternoon it took us 5 1/2 hours to get to Galveston. Monday morning it took us only 4 1/2 hours to get back.
The weekend was great. I did a lot of laying around on the beach. Galveston beach isn't the prettiest I've been to, but there's still something magical about the ocean. Kristen, Marisa, Jenny, and I just hung out, ate good food, and laughed a lot. It was quite low key and exactly what I needed. (Well, I needed it except for the sunburn in places that I missed when applying sunscreen.)
I also learned an interesting thing about myself this weekend is that I have a hard time relaxing and letting go. Saturday morning I woke up from dreams about work. Then I spent a few minutes laying in bed thinking about work and school before Kristen woke up and asked me what I was thinking about. I had to actually redirect my thoughts a few times during the weekend to make myself relax. But now that I'm home, it's time to get back in the swing of things.
