Relaxing When You Don't Feel Good
| A benefit of being caught up on laundry and having the house generally in order is that when you get to not feeling so good, you can relax, which helps you get better faster. Today after finishing school with the younger kids, I took a 2 hr nap. It was the later time in the afternoon where Rose could work independently, which she did. Then tonight after finishing a good book and getting the children to bed, I watched a movie. What a joy to not be thinking, "I should fold laundry or do dishes." There was no air from George to be doing something. He knows I'm not feeling 100%, but still, just to know he wasn't stressed out because of work that was looming was a joy to me. I hope to stay on top of things this whole winter so that anytime I'm under the weather, it is not a big deal. I hate being sick and having work sit that should be getting done! |

About your post: That is good advice - to keep everything caught up - even if it's just so you can sit down once in awhile.
I have an unofficial agreement with myself, that on the days I'm feeling 100%, I do as much as I can, all day long. I do this because I know that if the weather gets gloomy or I don't sleep well, I will be dragging and I won't get even 50% done.
Anyway - hope you get to feeling better very soon. Keep resting. Sometimes I think those obstacles are put there, so we will take the time to rest.
Blessings,
Debbie
