    Today I have the day off work, so I'm hoping to get a little yoga done & and have a nice relaxing afternoon, to give my mind a break

    My self care dropped off for a hot minute. So last night I went and camped in the woods. I spent the evening spring in front of a fire reading. This morning I say around drinking camp coffee and eating rice and beans while I read. It was so nice. I need to get my *kitten* together because I have been slacking lately. Tonight after the gym I am trying to finish the book Atomic Habits and then starting to really put it into practice.

    Went for a lovely walk, instead of skipping my lunch break and eating at my desk today :smile:

    I had a wonderful "farm market dinner" to start Memorial Day weekend: Kirby cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, the perfect ear of corn on the cob, and some delicious cherries. 🍅 🌽 🍒

    Also, got in a nice walk early this morning.

    I hope that everyone has a great weekend!

    Ooh I love this!! And reading how you all are taking care of yourselves is wonderful! Yesterday, I drove my mama around and looked at places for sale (my dad passed away last year and she had to sell our family acreage in February). It was a wonderful day and we found one place that could potentially be perfect! Today, my stepkids just left with their grandma on their moms side, so I’m drinking my coffee listening to all the birds in the backyard. After I clean house, my mom is coming for a sleepover lol and we’re gonna have a bonfire 😁🔥

    Sorry to hear about your Dad. It sounds like you have a fun weekend planned! 😃

    Walked with a co-worker/friend for 200 minutes. I can't believe the distance we covered, but I'm so happy we did it! (We are both Type 2 diabetics and have both lost a lot of weight.)

    I was away for a few days, while away I made getting my walk in a priority. Also took advantage of the hotel pool. Made a work event partly a mini vacation. I was very relaxed when I got back home.

    @RubyRed427 💃👏👍

    As you know I have been away on vacation! What a wonderful idea for a thread! Sorry to join so late.

    Self care: I am enjoying a new hot tea that arrived in the mail today and catching up on my favorite magazines with golf on TV in the background. Long bath later! Win - Win. 💃👍

    Selfcare today was meditation yoga, and two long walks at work.

    I hope everyone is doing ok.

    I got so caught up with my divorce, moving to an apartment, child’s graduation, college orientation and so on... I totally forgot about this thread! So sorry I didn’t keep it going. Maybe in July, we can try again. Goodnight friends. Self care: insight timer bedtime story (it’s a new feature on the app for meditation). I’m listening to an adult bedtime story about a perfect summer day. The narrator’s voice is so soothing...... I have yet to hear the end of the because I fall asleep.
