Well I think I would choose to go on a spa trip to a resort. My friend went to Ojai Resort and loved and said it was the best. SO I would do that! I would get a spa treatment or 2 a day, eat fabulous food and just relax and get pampered.

I suppose for some, this answer will sound pretty pathetic, but it's MY answer, right? My sister has a condo at a ski resort in PA and it is there that I have left many sweet memories of my sisters, my mother and my family. I love going to her place and simply enjoying the beauty of the mountains, the woods, the sound of skis thumping across the lodge floor, dinners overlooking the slopes and sweet times of solitude to get alone with the Lord without anyone or any interruptions or voices calling me or needing me for something. It is a piece of heaven on earth for me. I don't need manicures, hot tubs or exquisite meals...the simple beauty of nature and solitute is pampering enough for me. Drinking in the splendor of God through His creation pampers my body, mind and spirit. Wish I could afford a plane ticket and I'd be on my way!

I'm not much on pampering myself so I have to think on this one. I think that I would probably go to the beach or lake,relax take some coffee and just look and listen to all of the great things God created for us!!!I know, I'm simple but that is just me.

Okay so I would go back to a beach house that I went to in college. It belonged to a family at the church I went to. Even though it was cold, I sat on the beach with a blanket and read a great book. I also took a nice long bath (which I dont usually do, I just take showers) I had candles and smell good stuff (vanilla scent, if I recall!!) I watched Hope Floats and cried my eyes out. It was just a great relaxing weekend all by myself. Yep, I would definetley go back to the beach house!

I know just where! It would be on Paradise Island at the Hotel Atlantis. I would get the works! Massage, manicure, pedicure, body wrap, everything! And I'd get to look at the beautiful Caribbean Sea or their gorgeous aquariums while I'm getting it all done! Ahhh, that would be nice :)

This is a tough choice...I love the beach but I never get in the water. I can sit for hours on end and stare at the sand and the all the shells that wash up on the shore. And as I look out at the horizon, I think about all the millions of different lifeforms that are in the ocean, from the biggest to the microscopic and it amazes me that God created them all. But He chose us to have an intimate relationship with Him. I was going through a really rough time in my life and as Joe & I sat on the beach, I picked up a broken shell and just cried and cried as God stirred in my soul, that He loved me more than anything in that huge big sea. I brought that shell home with me and wrote the date on it and I keep it in my kitchen and when I feel alone and unloved I pick it up and remember the feeling that I had in my heart that day! That God loves me even when I am broken.
Next, I think I would chose the cabin in North Carolina that Joe & I stayed in on our honeymoon. It was so secluded on the top of a mountain, with miles of mountain views from the balcony. It was so peaceful and serene with no distractions from the world. No phone or TV or computer. You could just sit for hours and spend time with the Lord.
So those are my two choices to pamper myself in.

This is not hard at all. It would be some sweet bath oil in a hot bath in my own bath tub in my own house surrounded by silence interrupted only by the splashing of my own movements and lasting until I'm good and done. Did I mention the candles from world market everywhere and erik satie or claude debussy's piano pieces? Yeah. What a dream...

My perfect idea of relaxing is going to a lake house or a house on the river and spending a quiet weekend with my family, just laying around, swimming, eating good food, and watching movies

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.....I missed your contest. But finally I am posting to you Deb. On occasion I read your posts and I always think----this woman needs to be doing stand-up comedy. I love everything you write. I often have visions of you and my sister, Barb, laughing over a bit of nothing that just got you going. Isn't laughter wonderful. I would pamper myself with simple quiet on my front deck enjoying the mountains and watching the deer and birds. Love ya Deb.
