Self Care Sunday

Do you have certain things that you try to do each week to take care of yourself??

I have really been trying to work more on taking the time to take care of myself. It is so important for me to take care of me, so I can take care of everyone else. I have a lot of people that depend on me and they need the best of me! I am NOT good at slowing down. I know this about myself and over the years have realized it even more. I like to be busy and it is very hard for me to just sit and be. On Sunday I take the time to go and visit my grandparents. This is a time I get with my family. My girls love to go and play with their cousins and I get to go and chat with my aunts, uncle and cousin as well. It is the time I give myself to just be. Some weeks is harder than others because there is a lot going on, but I try to remind myself that this time with them is important because I will not always get that. There is going to come a day when I am no longer able to go and visit with them on Sunday and that is going to be so hard. During the time when we were on lock down it was hard on them and us to not be there. We have been going to their house on Sunday afternoon for as long as I can remember.

I work hard to get the things done I need to be done for the week, so that I can enjoy this time. I also know when I get home it is dinner and prepare for the next day. We also enjoy movie night on Sunday night when we get back home.

Sunday is a day that I try to do less and relax more. I think it is important to set myself up for a good week.

Do you take Sunday to relax or are you busy working around your house or on other things?

It is important to give yourself grace, so I encourage you to take one day to just be and see if it helps you. Gotta take care of yourself!
