For the past couple of years, we have gone to Palm Springs for my birthday in July. This past birthday, I was a month done with chemo and still struggling a bit and in the middle of radiation. I wasn't really allowed to be in the sun and I was wearing my wig and Palm Springs in the summertime is hot as balls. I was actually pretty bummed. I told John as soon as I'm not wearing my wig and I'm feeling better, we are going. We decided to go for our anniversary trip this past weekend. We always stay at the Viceroy and it feels like our home away from home. It's a boutique hotel so it's small, but they wait on you hand and foot. The food and drinks are delicious. The rooms are funky and cute. And the best part...we get to bring Bert. We had a nice, relaxing time. I do prefer it when it's a bit warmer out, but it was still great. John even got in the pool. We took a yoga class today and I was so impressed with John. He has only done yoga one other time, many years ago, and he did so well. He was able to get in full-on bridge pose. I can't even do that. I also treated myself to a massage, which was very much needed. I have always gotten the best massages at the Viceroy and this weekend was no exception. As I was paying, a masseuse told me she loved my hair. She is the first stranger to tell me she liked my hair, so it lifted my spirits.This weekend gets an A+ in the books.
