Yesterday afternoon I threw a blanket under a shade tree and laid down. Then I just closed my eyes and just enjoyed what nature had to offer … a nice breeze, baby and momma birds chirping, leaves rustling, some dogs barking in the distance, wow this is what I needed. It was so nice our dog Daisy joined me and stood guard.
After about an hour or so, I made my way back inside … had some supper, some tv and off to bed at around 8:30. As D was tucking me in, I asked him to open the window just a crack so I could get some of that fresh air going past my face. Before you knew it, I was sleeping like a baby.
I woke up this morning with a headache; par for the course. So I grabbed the Tylenol and decided to quit being a martyr.
I’m a bit down on energy but feeling pretty good overall.

Oh, what a lovely idea! I may do the same. Out of the sun in the shade.
I love napping outside! Sounds like you really enjoyed it!
Hope you feel better soon. So great that you could relax a little and take in the beauty of the moment. That is something I need to work on. And do take what you need to help yourself feel better. I used to avoid any extra meds like crazy but soon came to realize I wasn't helping myself.
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Deb
do what your body tells you and rest when it requires it...
Laying out on the grass does sound really nice, I have my niece coming over this weekend so I am going to get a bag of jelly beans and do the same with her. We like naming the shapes in the clouds.
Hope you are feeling better Daria,
.....:-) Hugs
