Down Time!

Since mid August when I started writing again I have endeavored to write a post every week.

Last week I missed one.

As you know I was sick, I got healthier, then there was the feeling of catching up, running about for the Christmas shopping, putting up the tree, cooking, hosting a party….

Sounds like excuses to me.

I actually felt guilty for not writing at one point, and I thought to myself,

"Next week when it's time to write again, give your readers an apology."

So I've been contemplating that all week.  Fortunately most of this week I had off.

I was relaxing, having got a lot of the things done I need done, when it hit me.

No matter what we do, how heavy or light the load may seem, regardless of any circumstance

We all need down time.

I commented on it with a friend who works seven days a week.  I offered advice that they need a break

And so it hit me.

I didn't neglect my blog, or my readers, my body was telling me I needed some down time from writing.

Its been a new venture and I have been at it diligently since its undertaking.

I needed a bit of a break. That's all.

We all need a break sometimes.

Merry Christmas everyone.  I'll write next week.
