Luxury. I am alone, in he opposite of the hotel we stayed in n our adventure in Monroe, GA. The Omni Jacksonville is incredible.

They left me a robe in the closet. Hot chocolate and V-8 juice outside my door this morning. A newspaper.

If you never done so, I highly recommend being a tourist in your own town. I feign ignorance about directions and restaurants; let the staff tell me what to do. Tonight my husband will join me, and we will snuggle up in a huge bed under a down comforter and watch HBO. Eat room service.

He calls this my “mental health time”. I do this instead of medication, instead of doctors and cognitive behavior therapy. This is what I do for me; I am my own advocate. And it works.
