But I'm busy too mostly with work, housekeeping and social life. And even though the last one is fun too I love to sit down and read a book or watch one of my favourite tv shows. I tape a lot of those and try to watch one episode every night and then read something before going to bed, it's very relaxing. Have fun today at Dr. Oz! .-= Fran´s last blog ..<a href="http://dutchgirlgetshealthy.wordpress.com/2010/02/08/a-day-in-my-life-monday-february-8th-2010/" rel="nofollow">A day in my life: Monday February 8th 2010</a> =-.

It reminds me of my honeymoon in Hawaii. I got a massage at a fancy spa and they gave me a foot bath with beautiful flowers floating in it - just like the one in the picture! Taking time to recharge is very important. My daily exercise helps me to recharge too, but a few minutes of down time can do wonders! .-= Kat´s last blog ..<a href="http://fitmindbodyspirit.blogspot.com/2010/02/never-too-late.html" rel="nofollow">Never too late...</a> =-.

I love my quiet time which usually comes in the morning before everyone else gets up. My life is a bit chaotic so taking time to just be, a 10 minute meditation, think, enjoy my yerba-mate tea and focus on the best parts of my life gives me such a great feeling. I feel renewed and ready to take on the day's challenges. Thanks for this great post.

A lot of times I read after the kids are in bed and before I fall asleep, but I find I need that time. I also like having 20-30 mins to exercise. This could be at the gym away from the kids or a nice brisk walk outside (when it's not too cold). But I have found I'm a better mother and wife when I have this time to me, so it's definitely worth it. .-= Anonymous Fat Girl´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.anonymousfatgirl.com/?p=1819" rel="nofollow">It wasn’t VEGAS, but it was FUN</a> =-.
