Personal Retreat 2012

It's a glorious sunny morning that greets me after a wonderful sleep in on my 2nd annual personal retreat (I slept past 7am, that's the extent of my sleep ins these days!) and I am so thankful to my wonderful husband who holds the fort while I get the chance to be alone for 24hrs or so.


Yesterday I enjoyed a wander around the shops, the best chicken salad I've had in a long time from Nandos, and a massage and facial before coming back to my room with a mocha latte and raspberry and strawberry dark chocolates from Koko Black (WOW!!! So amazing, better than what I've had from there before lol).



I got to spend some precious time with my Saviour which is the main point of the retreat for me. Getting refreshed and refocussed, such a blessing. And something I needed so much after a very busy/stressful first half of the year.

Something new that I did this year was make use of the hotels gym :) I had a great workout, and i RAN (well it was probably 'technically' jogging, but whatever - I LOVED it!) and then Aaron came in and joined me for dinner :)

So now I've got this morning to spend more time in worship and prayer before heading back to reality :) and the reality is that I'm blessed beyond measure, my cup overflows!
