Making Time

Sometimes, I think the easiest thing we say to our friends and family is that we don't have time. We don't have time for a longer phone call, or we don't have time to run out to the grocery store or we don't have time to do...well whatever it is! And then we tell ourselves that we don't have the time to do the things that we enjoy because we use our time with either work or...other uses of our time that are not as productive as they could be (I'm guilty of this!).

Well, when you make time for the things and the people you care about, your time has more meaning. Last night, I sat down and just played the piano. I made time for it, and it was one of the best hours I've had in awhile. While I know that this can't happen every night (sadly), making time for the people and things that really make us the most happy is the best time we can give ourselves. We hear this all the time, I know, but with the holidays coming up (I heard someone say yesterday that Thanksgiving is just a speed bump to Christmas. What?!), we need to enjoy the time as much as we can and make time for the things and people that deserve our time. and we deserve it too! What is it that you ladies make time for?

Hope everyone is having a good week!

Total Relaxation

I'm serious ladies, I have not relaxed like this in too long!

and it felt so good!

I do not know why I do this more often (well I do, but I digress!).

I spent the whole weekend watching two adorable mini doxens, watching a lot of tv with my best gal pals my sisters (aka cooking shows and romantic movies. That means you Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling!),  and indulging in a little chocolate. It felt so good because this hasn't happened in so long!

I don't know when I'll have the chance to have a weekend of nothing, but I'll definitely savor this one for a while! When was your last weekend of utter relaxation? It's seriously rejuvenating (and probably should make a comeback one of these days!)
