at least in my case, I need to leave a little bit of time for me. Even if it's just fifteen minutes every other day. In bed today feeling like death warmed over with cold symptoms and a temp of 102F. Have started taking garlic and am already feeling a little better and am breathing a little easier. One nice thing of living in a heavily Hispanic area is that many Hispanics have retained faith in (legal) herbs as medicine......I can likely ask my neighbors for some antibiotic tea and get a few teabags without having to go down to the store to get them myself.
And I'm digressing. My point is that I believe that some people can just work, work, work, work, and make that their identity/point of pride perhaps - I am not one of them. I need more balance in life than that, which is why I personally believe I'm in bed today. Will catch up online and on reading - I did manage to get a morning off last Saturday and I made it to the VSNA booksale at the state fairgrounds and I have a bunch of books to read.
When do you know it's time to take a breather? I seem to have this ability to ignore any signs my body gives me lol.......Rob
