Morning Break

treetree

Christmas break ended for the children a couple of days ago. My plan was to immediately get back to work. But I took a break; a very short one, but one that helped. And after reading "the joy of quiet," I think I made the right decision.

Thanks, Monica.

Whoops just went to Amazon then back here and figured out it's an article. All the better! Thanks for the link!

Such awesome photos you always have, Del. The trees in that setting are very cool.

Lots of food for thought in that article! I think that we were lucky to grow up in a time where the Internet and technology was not so pervasive as it is now. Having to entertain ourselves with a book or craft or going outside to play instead of turning on the nearest gadget. I was intrigued about the new "retreat" style vacation. I hope that you enjoyed your short break.

Gorgeous pics! And a great read - thanks! Very, very true.
On a semi-related note, I received a new laptop for xmas, so didn't have you in my menu bar anymore! Yikes! I fixed THAT right up and caught up. Congrats on the glue gun - my son is dying for me to get one, but I think I'll have to get a dog beware sign, too, before I do!

Interesting article. I often turn off my phone and I don't have TV in my home. I enjoy walks with my baby and dog. It's so important to have a break.
p.s: I just don't know how it happened that I missed your moving to other place. Thankfully I'm here!
Hugs!

glad you liked the article. I keep re-reading it. I think 'quiet' is the new 'going out' don't you think?

Thank you so much for the article. I am feeling a constant need to unplug and gather my thoughts but could never really but words to it. This article is amazing!
