It is the end of the week and time for my favorite find. Friday Finds is a place to gather and share...a chance to cherish life's simple pleasures...
My find this week is once again a little different from the norm. My find this week is time...me time.
A chance for me to step away from all distractions...a chance to renew. Even if it is only minutes a day...i am finding that it helps me so much when i am faced with my daily challenges.
I do not know about you, but i am always putting myself last...even the dogs get more of my attention than i give myself!
So this week i have tried hard to find some time for myself....reading, napping, stitching, knitting....just enjoying some peace and quiet from life's busy summer days.
Today i am linking up with Kim Klassen's Friday Finds. If you have a moment be sure to click on the beautiful button below to discover more beautiful finds.

I know exactly how you feel. I put myself last for a long time, and even still when Mallory comes home, I put what I want to do until the end of the day, and then I am too tired. It is important to nourish ourselves with some alone time.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way and had a day like that yesterday when I was working on my Grandson's post...I have my Friday find but no time today...I'll get to it though and I also have my lesson for this week...but again, needs processing.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for finding the time and doing it...It is a beautiful post...I love it.
Such a beautiful image Nancy I'm glad you took some time for yourself....
ReplyDeleteA lady after my own heart when needing a bit of time to yourself to do whatever calls to your creative soul....
ReplyDeleteA pretty find as I was at the nursery yesterday looking at all the lovely Hydrangea varieties available.... I found a miniature pink one I'd love to buy, perhaps next time.
Your collection of classes look alluring as I'm going to hop around to see what they are.
Have a nice weekend,
Karla

ReplyDeleteOh, Nancy, I am so with you on this. I give 110% on my job and it can be a tough balancing act. I hear that porch swing calling me...
