A couple of days ago,

I decided that 

Facebook 

was creating too much strife

in my life.

I decided to

deactivate my account—

at least until 

after the election.

Even though I miss it,

I don’t miss all

of the hatefulness going on. 

I decided that it was time

to devote some of my energy 

to myself!! 

Caring for an invalid Aunt

takes up a lot of my time.

I’d be the first to recommend 

to anyone in this situation 

to care for themself first.

But we rarely 

take our own advice.

Last night,

with my husband’s encouragement,

I decided it was time 

for a nice luxurious soak.

Ahh!!

The soothing properties 

of lavender and hot water

are just what the doctor ordered.

My best advice to you is to

take good care of yourself 

before you commit to caring for others!!

Blessings to all who visit here.
