My week goes by too quickly and I know it is because my schedule is booked.  I rarely make time to take lunch and then I feel worn down.  This weekend I made no plans and decided to take a page from the book of my cat, Sara, and rest. 

I read 2 books, caught up on some television, and spent time with my pets. The best part is that I don't feel guilty for taking the time because I needed it. I work hard and I neglect my own needs more than I care to admit.  I am not doing myself or anyone around me any favors.  

Do you remember when Snickers came out with the phrase "You are just hangry have a snickers"? Well, when you forget to take care of yourself first your body and mind are hangry.  Hangry for the time you used to spend doing something for yourself. We don't have to be that busy. Put you first and you will always put your best self forward.
