Time flies by when you are having fun, or so they say. It actually seems to fly best when you are not aware of it…you get immersed in whatever it is that you are doing, and before you know it, another minute, hour or day has gone by.

Been thinking more about my “retirement” response to people, and there are some thing that I am enjoying – like not “having” to get up and go to work. When I get up, there are things that have to be done, but just not having to “go” to work is a wonderful thing. In light of that, my life is a little busier with work at church, home and other places.

Running around the web, and ran across this anonymous quote…”Don’t make someone a priority who only considers you an option.”

Well, I most definitely know who does not consider me an option, but He’s a little more that just another person in my life.

Was looking for an article in a computer e-newsletter. What caught my eye after reading the article, were the words “15 Stress Tips”.

Yet, there it was – “15 Effective Stress Banishing Tips”. Let me tell you, reading them was very interesting. I won’t bore you with all 15, but here are the ones that caught my eye…

“Breath Deeply” – let’s you ease tension; “Mini Massage”; “Write It Down” – very interesting recommendation to restrict your “worry” time to 30 minutes a day (almost better than “count to 10”); “Laugh at yourself, or others!”; “Listen to Music” – I cranked up the IPod immediately with some fantastic praise sounds; and finally “Exercise.”

If you want the full link so you can read all 15 yourself, drop me an email and I’ll send it to you. Hope you have a fantastic Sunday!
