Goals for my break


(view from my backyard a few days ago)

This year spring is bringing something new for me.

A break.

I've been teaching/writing Bible studies now for over a year without taking any time off and I am feeling the strain. I haven't blogged in months.  I spend most days just trying to keep up with the pace of life.

My goals for the spring/summer include:
  • personal Bible study (with no agenda)
  • morning walks 
  • warm baths at the end of the day
  • prayer
  • tending my garden/adding some more plants
  • finish memorizing Philippians 3
  • reading alone and with the kids
  • taking the kids to the pool
  • focusing on exercise and nutrition
  • rocking on the porch with a glass of tea and at least one friend
  • outdoor cooking
  • lots of laughing
  • homemade ice cream
  • getting to know neighbors on a deeper level
  • blogging regularly
  • playing games
  • evening walks with the whole family

What do you do to relax?
