The past few weeks have been full. Full in both positive and negative ways. Watching my kids perform at a coffee house, watching my teen stretch and grow, watching my littles try new things. All good. But we have also battled some nasty health things lately--KC's sudden bout of pneumonia, Lissa's bronchial infection, K's cold. My mom has some health issues, as had K's dad. Work has been intense and the holidays approach bringing stress and joy in equal measures. Actually if I remember back to my sociology days, it is technically called "eustress and distress" but science has pretty well shown that regardless of whether we may enjoy the stressor, the result on our bodies is pretty much the same.
So that makes me thankful that I have vacation this week. A week to take things down a notch or two. Today after church I spent over an hour playing Wii fit with the gang and not thinking about work prep at all.If you knew me IRL, you would know that is very unusual.
I wish for all of us to have a bit of time to breathe, to find a moment of inner peace in whatever way works best for you!
