' Me ' Time

It's back to work tomorrow , my days off have just flown. I've done nothing of significance. My weekend, I have blown. I baked some treats yesterday, enough to last awhile. Got my hair newly shorn. in the shortest possible style. Started the day on the deck with a very strong cup of brew and opened a book to just escape, even if just for an hour or two. I used to feel so guilty for doing nothing on my days off. But now I know that relaxing was an accomplishment not to scoff. The older I get the more I realize this "me" time is what I need. whether its making muffins, writing a poem or grabbing a book to read. 06/09/2019

Oh I totally agree how important 'me' time is but it can be challenging not to feel guilty about doing something simply for you:-) hugs Jan xx

I wish I could convince myself of that, it seems I work harder on my days off than I do when I am at work. Really nicely expressed Francine.
