National Relaxation Day

I read on the internet that today is National Relaxation Day.  Shouldn't that be a national holiday so we can all take the day off to take a nap, read a book, drink a tall glass of iced tea?  Ah, wouldn't that be nice.

The way things have been going around here, I could use a day of rest and relaxation.  How about you?  We get so busy, especially in the Summer in the Northwest, that we go and go, trying to take in everything we can in our short-lived Summer.  

I think God is trying to tell my hubby to slow down a bit, as he is dealing with kidney stones, again.  However, his work schedule is the busiest it has been in a long time, not to mention our personal schedule.  

We can get so busy running, that we forget to take time to just slow down and rest.  When even God took a day of rest, I think we as human beings definitely need to take a day to rest, relax, enjoy relationships, and unplug from technology.  Summer is dwindling down.  Remember to take some time to relax and enjoy some sweet moments with your loved ones.  Make some great memories.  Go swimming.  Go for a leisurely walk.  Enjoy a sunset. Play.  Go fishing.  Enjoy a picnic.  Laugh.  Sit on your patio or porch and just relax.
