Stuck in the hotel elevator

It's not often that I take extended periods of time off from work, but due to a special event I traveled to Washington, D.C. for a weeklong convention. While on vacation I found myself wishing that I stayed at home. The first incident occurred on the third day of my trip, after socializing with friends I was returning to my hotel room for some much needed rest. I got on an elevator with six other women and it wasn't long before we realized that we weren't going anywhere, we were stuck. It was my first time being stuck in an elevator and I have to tell you would prefer not to have that experience again. It was about a half an hour before the fire department was able to get us out. The good news that three of the other detainees were friends of mine and we made great conversation (and jokes) to help ease the tension.

The other major event that occurred during my vacation happened on the day that I was scheduled to fly home. It was early on a Friday morning when I went to answer the door for housekeeping and BROKE MY TOE!!! Ouch!! As Beyonce's song goes my toe went "to the left, to the left”

So the next time you see me on Outlook Houston I will be sporting a hot new "blue boot" while my toe is on the mend.
