Downtime is important for your health.

Everything these days is go, go, go. This week has been so FULL. Not much home time at all. And while I am not complaining, because I’ve gotten to spend time with Mum and family and friends (and get lots of appointments over and done with), I think it’s important for everyone to acknowledge that you need that time where you can sit down and do whatever you want to do without thinking about all the things you have to do and the places you have to go.

The story of how that song came to be amuses me too.

XOXO

My family are amazing. I cannot believe the stuff that gets thrown at us, and the way we support each other with love, and laughter.
