A weekend of rest...like it or not

Well this weekend forced me to rest. You see, I'm a planner and making my brain take a siesta is a hard thing to do. I had a list of things I wanted to accomplish or get started on....it's D3's birthday this week - she'll be the big one zero..10 (you would think it was her 40th!). I wanted to get her gifts bought, the house cleaned, things for school started and a bunch of other stuff. GG mentioned that since D2 and D3 were still gone that maybe we would get up and go yard saling Saturday morning. I thought that sounded great as we haven't done it much this summer. Anyways I digress. We woke up Saturday morning, grabbed a bagel and some coffee and headed out. It was a nice morning and we found a few treasures but as the morning went on I began to feel kind of icky. By the time we headed home around 11:00 I was feeling really nauseous and yucky. I did not throw up thankfully but headed straight to bed feeling that way and slept until at least 2:30. I felt much better and had to take it easy on the food. This morning I woke up feeling better but certainly not 100%. We ended up getting some shopping done for D3's birthday but came home afterwards and have been resting. I was able to get some work done on the computer but that is about it. I just don't feel "right" and so I'm not pushing it. Maybe it was the ole body trying to tell me to chill and just rest a bit. I didn't get to work out like I had wanted but again maybe that was best.

Blessings for this weekend? I guess I would have to say that I am fortunate to be able to rest when I need it and listen to my body - even if it has to beat me over the head to make me take it. LOL
