Sunday naps and racing
Posted elaine19 on November 8th, 2009 | Filed under Uncategorized
On Sundays we are a typical family, there is a routine that we follow …. church in the am, then lunch then my hubby naps and the kids and I watch a movie or play outside , then dinner and we start prepping for the rest of the week. Today I changed our routine… well, actually I just changed my routine, and my husband graciously went along with it:)
After lunch was eaten, and everyone had scattered to colour play the computer and see when the Nascar race began, I told my husband that I felt like taking a walk… this would entail him waiting about a 1/2 hour before he began his nap…. (the same nap he had been taking at the same time for years!!) I loved his answer, ‘ Well the weather isn’t going be beautiful like this again for a while, you should get out there!’ so for 33 mins, I had a great time of quiet and the sunshine was amazing! I actually got a slight burn:) And felt so good about taking time for me!!
With the weather in Canada soon getting snowy and cold, don’t know that I wll be venturing out for many walks, but I have a Wii fitness trainer and I think that it will probably become my new best friend!
It is tea time, so gotta go, then baths for kids, and prep for tomorrow….

That’s so nice! You need to remember to take time for yourself!

Don’t you feel that alot of women forget that? I know that has been a big problem for me, and would have continued that way, but I have a friend who made me stop and think differently. I love the way she looks at her life, and how she takes care of herself… so I am changing slowly:) I will never be her but I can step up and make time for me…
