I just love blog hoppin" !
I happened upon an old friend I hadnt commented on for a while and realized just why yet again her blog so inspires me.... we are such kindred spirits...isnt that exactly what attracts us to so many in blogland!
Kathy, of A Scrapbook of Inspiration,
has delivered a Recipe for Slowing Down, and man did it strike a cord with me....
I wrote her that our lives have become so hectic, day after day fulfiling the "have to dos" with never a moment to just sit back and fulfil a "wish we could". But today, I determined to do just that!... My calendar was clear for once, and I decided to celebrate it by doing only what struck me as something special to do for us...
It was so exhilarating.... actually, energizing... I actually took some time to switch out my summer clothes for the winters... and organzied my closet, as well...
Source and a good one at that
and it felt so good to do this that it didnt feel like work at all!Besides that , I made an effort with each stroll through a room to be deliberate and put something back where it belongs, including many jackets, scarves, gloves, even a purse or two that I had switched out over the past couple of weeks..with just a deliberate effort, the house is looking pretty good... without really trying.... hey, there's something to living deliberately! Because running like a rat on a treadmill just isnt working for me!
