Down time.....
Posted : 7 Oct, 2013 07:11 PM

Ladies, as believers we know that we are to stay connected in and with The Lord by prayer, meditation, reading His Word, corporate worship, ministering, etc. My question is when you have or make time for "you", what are some of the most relaxing/satisfying things you really enjoy doing?



For me it's always been long walks..........

The most relaxing 'me time' activity that I loved most was taking my little one (my dog) for a walk. That stimulated me more than anything else, more of a fun exercise cause she'd make me run. Think she enjoys when i'm chasing after her, she'd wait for me cause she Knows I can't keep up with her pace.... Then she'll be all jumpy and excited as i'm rubing my hands all over her, and her sense of being humble everytime I touch her head, I don't know what she feels but she'd be still and look directly to my eyes with a selfless expression (will never get over those moments with her).



We'd be playing while having those in between moments of affection through body language. She's amazing!!



I'd get back home exosted hey,

While she's still full of energy and she'd be walking just before me as if she wants me to fall on her. When I stop walking so I give distance between us.... She also stops and wait for me, it was just crazy.



Those were my 'me' time with my little one.

Her name is Baby if she's still alive.... Hope she still is

Sisygirl.....sounds like Baby gave you great joy.....I do hope she is still alive and you and her can re-connect some day soon(smile)!



Sometimes I believe we just have to step back for a time and "smell the roses", so to speak! Reflect on God's goodness in some of the most simplest pleasures in life we sometimes take for granted! The daunting process of what were doing here on this site......well I just wanted to "exhale" for a few moments with my sister's in The Lord......thanks Sisygirl(smile)!!!

The most relaxing 'me time' even now is when i go to a hotel with one friend that i love so much(a lady),we just sit there chat over a cup of tea.We talk about so many issues and we have nothing to hide from each other.

I also enjoy when we go on shopping sprees together.We go shopping just for us not for the kids but us and we buy lots of things for ourselves.

We also shop for the kids but when its 'me time' its just me.

I love watching football . . . Usually I go to the earliest church service for those 17 weeks in the fall, so I can get back home to watch as much of all three NFL games every Sunday.

I know it isn't a very girl thing to do, but it is very relaxing to me :)

Used to be running...I could solve the world problems out for a couple mile run. Now it's walking through a park, a mountain trail, or on the beach picking up shells and rocks.

Sometimes reading a good,book or working a jigsaw puzzle when the weather isn't so good.
