Take Time to Enjoy the Little Things

I LOVE kittehs. LOVE THEM. Being around animals, or even looking at pictures of them, makes me happy and relaxes me.
I was visiting my mom when she said she had a surprise. One of the barn cats had kittens! There were two orange kittens, one all gray kitten, and one kitten that was a mix of orange and gray.
So cute!! The orange and grey kitten was hiding when I was taking pictures, but that little grey kitteh hammed it up for me!
I mean, seriously! I think when he/she is old enough, they will be coming home with me :)

When it was time to set out for the long weekend, we loaded up our two small SUV's full of kids and (probably way too many)camping supplies and headed to the state park.

One in particular caught my attention link and I wanted to share it with you: What is self-care? Self-care is any activity that we do deliberately in order to take care of our mental, emotional, and physical health. Although it’s a simple concept in theory, it’s something we very often overlook. Good self-care is key to improved mood and reduced anxiety. It’s also key to a good relationship with oneself and others. That makes sense, but if you are like me you want specific suggestions. The following is a quick, not exhaustive, list of potential self-care practices: - Promote a nutritious, healthy diet. - Get enough sleep. Adults usually need 7-8 hours of sleep each night. - Exercise. In contrast to what many people think, exercise is as good for our emotional health as it is for o...
