Day 15

"Make rest and refreshment a necessity, not a luxury." -- Dan Zadra
Rest and refreshment -- I suppose they linger somewhere between necessity and luxury for me.

Rest -- I need lots of it to function happily -- 8 hours a night does me right. We bought a new mattress 2 years ago -- a high end one that cost me more than I like to admit, but I must say I absolutely love it! I lie on it every night and feel like I am floating on a cloud. I love it, love it, love it. (I also wake up without that morning backache -- which is fabulous!)

Refreshment -- I like to eat and to cook, and especially to eat what I cook. Just the other night I made Mole that was delish! My husband often claims he'd rather eat in, than out. I agree.


After the dishes are done and the kids to bed, that is when I usually get a to unwind a little bit -- I usually put my feet up on the sofa with a glass of wine (or beer or whatever) in hand and watch some mindless TV, or play a video game, or read a magazine. This little routine should be a necessity, not a luxury -- but that isn't always so.
