Time Shut Down Pays Off

April 5, 2017

Well I rested yesterday and last night and my energy was back up this morning. When I get run down my throat gets sore, my ears swell and my eyes get weak. All of that had started by Monday. That’s when I knew I was in trouble. After resting most of Tuesday afternoon I got up around 6pm, Well Greg woke me up playing with the door bell. Tuesday evening at 6 is when he decided that we needed to change the ring. Now keep in mind when someone comes on my porch or rings the door bell it sets my phone off. So even if he wanted to shut the bedroom door I would still hear it go off.

Before I left that morning I had put dinner in the crock pot. We had dinner, I blogged and went back to bed. I slept all night until my alarm went off at 3:50. I wasn’t sure I could go to the gym much less take one of Shelly’s training sessions but I did and I made it. I’m not going to push myself the next few days but I’m gonna work a little bit on projects.  Never before have I been more aware of the value of resting my body.

I’m so excited that tomorrow I will be releasing a blog of pieces that will be in the Saturday sidewalk sale at Doc Holliday’s Emporium. I’ve got  fun pieces,  pieces that are one of a kind, piece to organize your home and always recycled, redone and reused. A few things are all ready to go and some of them need to be finished. Do you remember the drawing I showed you a few weeks back. Someone had given me square boxes I put together to make a great piece for an entryway, kids room or family room. It can be used in all rooms in the home including the bathroom.

I’m keeping it short and sweet on this Wednesday evening so I can go to bed and get more rest. I already feel like myself again but I know that if I don’t rest I will be down and out in just a few days. As I get older and my gym routine, teaching, being a Lolli along with all the other hats I wear sleep is so important. I hate the getting older part but the reality is I’m more active now than I was in my 20’s.

Tomorrow is Thursday and I’m going to enjoy my day off from school. Getting my hair done and a short visit to Dr. A’s office for a check up on my scares. I’m gonna finish some small projects and work on a few school things all these are not to tasking. I hope your day is full of amazing memories and a Blue Happy Thursday. Thank you so much for understanding while I’m taking things a bit slow this week. God Bless!
