Weekend plans? – taking care of yourself
A friend of mine and I were discussing our parental recovery today.
At the end of our chat she made a very intelligent suggestion. She said, “Make sure you go do something fun this weekend.”
I replied “Yes we bought tickets for the Boston Flower Show”
Her advice is wise…I wrote this post simply to pass the advice on.
What are you doing for yourself this weekend? Make sure you take time for you. Go to a game. Walk on the beach. Detach for a few hours. It will do you a world of good! Try to take a few minutes each day for you. My friend gives pretty good advice.
peace and strength

Sounds to me as though your friend gives pretty good solid advice…looking out for our own interests in this difficult time, we sometimes just need to be reminded that we matter as well;)
