I get through a lot of books this way.<br /><br />I also use my "down" time at doctors offices or waiting in lines to create my gratitude list, plan my next art project, etc. . .<br /><br />Having a phone with a camera has allowed me to capture the beautiful little moments in life - whether it is a flower on a walk or a friends baby laughing.<br /><br />Thanks for the important reminder to all of us that we are WORTH taking care of and we deserve to do good things for ourselves each day, it isn't selfish, it is loving one's self!Maureen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01825595311970223353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646019721893854936.post-8244788530836040722012-06-12T17:42:47.819-04:002012-06-12T17:42:47.819-04:00Words of wisdom.

Some are feminine, some are edgy, some are inspiring, and it seems so silly but it really does help me set the tone for the day.<br /><br />Great suggestions. I love the one about the flowers, I hadn't thought of that, but yeah - why not treat myself to something pretty, just because? ;)Adrianne Surianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02836522129854486281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646019721893854936.post-3573534183330652832012-06-12T08:48:55.723-04:002012-06-12T08:48:55.723-04:00Great advice, Terry!Great advice, Terry!Kara at Petals to Picotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649751202745139325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-646019721893854936.post-29886157031982986512012-06-12T08:45:56.887-04:002012-06-12T08:45:56.887-04:00So important, Terry!!!
