I took a break from reality

We just spent six days in northern Maine where there is sketchy phone service and minimal wifi - if at all. I kept my phone on airplane mode so I wouldn ' t kill the battery with it searching for a signal. Because there weren ' t any. We couldn ' t phone home if we wanted to.Actually it was very nice. A break from everything. I didn ' t blog which was very minor. But I also didn ' t worry about medical issues. At all. I pretended I was healthy and did what I could.We had fun. It was peak foliage. We took a boat tour on Moosehead Lake. We drove 10 miles down a dirt road to look at ruins of a plane crash - which was eerie and creepy to say the least. But definitely worth it. We helped the local economy by shopping and dining out.It was a wonderful break from all things medical. I didn ' t have a doctor appointment. I didn ' t concern myself with anything. This week I have two medical appointments to make up for the break.I highly recommend a week of unplugging and disconnecting for everyone. But now I have to catch up on so many things.
