The sunshine and a cool breeze are back today!!! Talk about a perfect Summer day. Though I have plenty or work and chores to do (who doesn’t?), I took a 2 hour break this am to read a book, outside in my treasured screen room, in my comfy rocking chair with the Puppy Girls napping nearby. I can’t remember the last time I relaxed enough to read a pleasure book. My quilt buddy Stef is away on vacation and sent me these photos – I love them! So thoughtful of her to include me in her playtime at the beach.
Her artwork reminded me that a dose of play is really needed every day, an idea I need to remember every day! Some down time can not only relax and recharge us, it repairs our bodies and minds as well. So make yourself a promise that each day – be it 20 minutes or two hours – make time for you. Read, watch the birds, stitch – anything that lets you relax and recharge. You’re worth it!
