Rest

“ Make rest and refreshment a necessity, not a luxury”
Lynnes quote for this week
I don't know about Anne, but I've bought the book, Lynn. I thought it looked really interesting.

I had to learn to relax and and rest and it wasn't easy at first. Now Roland has retired and the children have grown up it is much less difficult but I still have to step back at times and take a break.

My photos for today are more of our few days away as they are good examples of relaxation.

Enjoying Cheddar Gorge
 
A Beautiful sunset enjoyed from Saun and Fionas House
Taken with Rolands new camera
 
Watching Mum and Dad looking after baby
 
Relaxing with Smartie
 
I know I haven't finished last weeks nostalgia but I will do that sometime in the week.
 
 Tomorrow is World Book Night and I will be busy giving out "Girl with the Pearl Earing"
I am looking forward to that but it won't be very restful.

      You apply to the organisers to distribute one of their books. I think I joined up at the end of last year. I'm going to apply again next year, but I can't guarantee I will be chosen again. The idea is to give the books out to encourage people to read more.

    What lovely photos! I hope you will have many many more relaxing moments and I do know the feeling when we have to learn to relax - it isn't easy but so necessary. I hope your Book Night went well!

    Since I have been gone I am way behind with reading posts and commenting. Viv, the photos are wonderful. It looks like you did get your rest.
