Time to relax

I rarely take time for myself, but have been better about it lately. My right hip and lower back have been bothering me so I’ve been taking Epsom salt baths once or twice a week. My husband got me some bath bombs for Christmas so I added one to the bath. Fun that my toes match the water lol. Not sure why this made me giggle but just had to share lol.

Christmas and life lessons

If I’ve learned anything in the last year or 10 or 40+ years, life is short.

Friendships may not last a lifetime. Health fades. Jobs sure can suck sometimes, but are necessary. Military life is hard. You move. You adjust. You move again. Making new friends as you get older is hard.

But at the end of the day you embrace what brings you joy. Family. Sunshine. Lifelong relationships. Belly laughs. Memories. Good food. Spending too much money on something you know will make someone smile. Heartfelt gestures. Hugs. Random acts of kindness. Inclusion. Smiles.

Wear the dress. Eat the food. Call someone you love. Laugh every day.

Life is short. Embrace it.

Merry Christmas to you all.
