All of you "youngsters" need to remember that and make time to be with your friends. I was out last night with my favorite group (teachers I worked with at a school that is now closed). We have a strong bond and it grows deeper every time we are together.<br /><br />Walking in the early morning, spending time with my children, playing with my grandchildren, reading a great book, travel, shopping with my best friend, prayer...all of these de-stress my life and bring me great joy:)drpffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10091600378615453971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-852120052681681870.post-20815629465867041702011-11-11T19:21:30.904-06:002011-11-11T19:21:30.904-06:00Hey Beth--yummy desserts.

So much for my no-sugar intake! Good luck with your son and his surgery and hope you're able to get lots of writing done!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05296300032567383021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-852120052681681870.post-8962450488563167742011-11-11T09:53:50.139-06:002011-11-11T09:53:50.139-06:00Linda...miss you, too!

My sense of humor's got nothing on you!)<br /><br />Sioux...Let me just say that, if i'd been there last Wednesday, I would have gladly proven my dessert-eating capabilities with that birthday cake. But then, you guys wouldn't have gotten any!<br /><br />Jo...thanks for stopping by! We do need our girls to remind us of who we are. Hope you make it back. I was going to apologize for the "old" reference, but then noticed that you said "the ol' batteries" - ha! Crazy that we are all turning 40 this year. That's just another reasons we deserve time to ourselves ; )Beth M.

There will always be sports games or dance classes or piano lessons or sleepovers or... but we need to take the time for ourselves occasionly. We need that time to remember who we are (I *am* still funny!), reconnect with others who makes us feel alive and simply recharge the ol' batteries. Thanks for helping me remember that. I think a trip home for a girl's night is in my future. ;)Jo Muehlemann Braunnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-852120052681681870.post-48389891527654210212011-11-10T16:01:02.633-06:002011-11-10T16:01:02.633-06:00Yes, I'm wondering why you post pictures of ri...Yes, I'm wondering why you post pictures of rich desserts. I KNOW you don't eat those.<br /><br />Chocolate. Reading a great book. Walking my dog. A day at the wineries in Ste. Genevieve. All those things relax me.
