Well, as you all know, Sunday was my birthday so the whole weekend was a relaxing one. We went to the beach for a meal, we came back home and sat outside on the garden talking just about anything. The night was relaxing enough. The moon was almost a full moon so it was very [...]

Some days I just need to relax, allow my body and my mind to recuperate from the tiring tedium of being a full time student. My ideal "rest" day is pretty straightforward. Wake up just in time to get ready for classes. Go to classes, then hit the gym. Then come home, take a shower and kick back.There is nothing that can compare to the simple joy of wearing comfortable clothes, sitting on the easy chair and reading a book with music softly playing in the background. A rest day clears your mind. It helps you stay sane when the pressure has built up and you feel like exploding.It's a shame we don't relax as much as we need to. Taking one day off here and there is much more efficient than just breaking down and not being able to go any further. Go, take a break, it's good for you. :)

By: Jesse AkreFeel like spending a relaxing day outdoors? Well, in order to do it, you need to have some comfortable seating in place and one of the best options is lavish chaise lounges. They would be a spectacular addition to any patio, deck, or porch area.What makes chaise lounges such a comfortable seating selection is their lovely design. Generally one will have a long, rectangular lounging area that is perfect for sitting up or lying down since it will come with a backrest that can be raised or lowered. Some will even come with additional features like wheels for easy transportation, pull out snack trays, and armrests. And, you can even make yours more comfortable than it already is by purchasing a cushion for it. Nothing is better than sitting on a plush, cozy layer of padding.Chaise lounges would be a great choice for furnishing any outdoor space to create a lovely, relaxing environment. For example, maybe you want a nice spot on your deck where you can just retreat to after a
I am in such a good mood today. I am appreciating all of my friends. I am so lucky, and I appreciate all of them so much, they don’t even realize. And I’m so glad I’m not letting people treat me like crap anymore. There was an incident at the tournament with another team, tears and yelling, and I was just thinking to myself how I love my team, Thunder Paws flyball!
Sitting in the hotel room, working, having it be quiet and different, is really helping me to relax. I am having a very nice time here. I wonder if they sell Wicked tickets in Las Vegas because I love seeing the shows here. Though I haven’t seen many, I would like to see more.
Not this week, though. This week is vegetable week!
Today we relaxed. We should have yesterday, but that’s okay. We went to Lake Mead and Rogers Springs. Was fun. The drive was too long and the traffic was horrible, but it was nice being with the boys.
I keep looking at Chase’s new jewelry, his flyball pins!
Levi has been sleeping all day. I think his feet hurt because of the short hike we did yesterday. And Chase keeps wanting to go out. I think he thinks hotels mean we do something. And we are just relaxing today! I am enjoying the down time, the alone time, that is so rare for me.

FOOD
(Since I am a vegetarian, I’ll start with a couple of great vegetarian choices)
EAT AND TWO VEG (Marylebone High Street, W1) is one of my favourites, its got booths, great vegetarian food like shepherd’s pie, veggie cheeseburgers, and even a Sunday roast of the day. We flesh-challenged so often miss out on the old faves like Yorkshire Pudding and gravy but, you won’t here. Yum. Great, but expensive desserts. And they serve alcohol, vegetarian does not equal puritanical.
VITAORGANIC (Wardour Street, Soho, W1) is a simple, cheapish, buffet of yummy veggie food so you can see what you’re getting when you choose. Not a place to linger over a meal so much but good food, that is quick and easy. Good juices, of course, with interesting teas.

Once again a busy day. Work, though, was kinda fun. I feel like I learned some and got some things done. My coworker friend and I (she did 99% of the work) gave a training class today. I don’t like doing it, but I have done, and will do again. She does such a good job. Anyway, I was able to remote into my work PC and run queries during the training. They take so darn long.
In the afternoon she helped me work on a report, and opened up my eyes to new options I hadn’t known of before. It’s so nice to have more options!
Tonight I had to declutter the house some, as the maid service is coming tomorrow. Will be nice and clean again!
And tomorrow my hermit crabs come! I’m excited, and nervous. I hope I have everything set up just right for them!
Anyway, the nice thing about working from home is I can make a big pot of coffee in the morning, though it’d be nice to have espresso machines too. I do love a Latte, though a plain cup of coffee does me okay, too.

Its not often that PG and I get to take a day and spend the whole thing goofing off. Actually that never happens because there are always the Hounds to care for and no matter how you look at it, they're a lot of work. But today was as close as we've gotten in a long time.
Back up the truck to last night when Nicko the Sicko and I played Wii until 3am. Totally irresponsible and junior high-like. But it was fun (sort of).
Until the alarm went off at 6.
She came back over and mom, PG and I headed to our local flea market to benefit the animal shelter. We found lots of good bargains (which I would post photos of had I not been a dork and left them in the car). Best of all, everything is donated and the entire selling price goes directly to the animals. We love that!
Sidenote - I've been decluttering our house and what do I do? Go buy someone else's clutter. Sigh.
And since we had to be up at that sort of ungodly hour (actually
If you could see stress around someone, my head would have resembled Pigpen from Charlie Brown this morning – but instead of dust and dirt I had sparks of stress fizzing and buzzing around my head! I wanted a nice, relaxing weekend but it hasn't exactly gone that way - and for no particular reason either (except possibly me trying to fit too much in - as usual!) Actually, perhaps I was more like Lucy!
I really wanted a chill out this weekend but had a tough day at work on Friday, then a lengthy conversation with my Ex in the evening which just left me feeling drained. I couldn’t’ seem to get going on Saturday and suddenly had a urge for some space – you know, the peace and quiet that working Mums sometimes crave like the delicious distant memory that it is! Obviously with Cole and John I couldn’t get said space, although I have to admit that I’d probably have had more chance of getting it if I’d actually asked for it instead of stomping round the place sighing a lo
Everyone in your family, including your children, will enjoy planting a vegetable garden. Even when you include your children, you can still have a very delightful garden in which everyone can enjoy spending time together. Of course, you may want to add some pumpkins, watermelons or sunflowers to your garden since these are things that your children will really enjoy. Grow A Pizza GardenThere are a lot of ways in which you can go about planting an organic garden, filled with wonderful tasting vegetables. One way that you can do this is by planting a theme garden. For instance, you can plant a pizza garden wherein you can grow all of the vegetables that you would need in order to make a great, homemade pizza. Some of the things that you could grow in such a garden include tomatoes for making the sauce; green peppers, jalapenos and onions for toppings; and various herbs and seasonings such as basil, thyme and oregano.What You Need To Use In All Natural GardeningThere are some specific ga

So far this summer you have spent zero time outdoors. The reason, the seating in your space is just not all that comfortable and you would rather do something else that does not result in a backache. Well, there is an easy way to fix the problem, all you need to do is purchase some teak chairs. With some on your deck, porch, or patio area, you will never choose to stay indoors again.The common misconception about teak chairs is that they are available in only one kind of style. However, there are actually a lot of options to choose from, so you can find the perfect ones to match your style and what kind of outdoor space that you are going for. Like, maybe you want to recreate the feel that you have going on in your living room. Then, a nice option for you be those of the deep seated variety, which come in all sorts of sizes from those made for just one person to others that are big enough to seat two, even three people. They come with thick, plush cushions and the best cushions you sho
There is a rising need to be recharged and be rejuvenated as we progress in our careers and work life. So, take time to have a vacation whenever you can afford to.
It’s hard not to enjoy a restful and relaxing vacation when you are tucked away in a hotel that features 5 pools (some heated) at the Rio Las Vegas, or tan on the sandy beach in a lagoon setting. A wonderful way to unwind at the pool, beach, and spa areas, complete while the children have their fair share of fun at the whirlpools, waterfalls, cabanas, sundecks, and more. For those who like to keep fit, the fitness center has all the equipment you need. With numerous golf courses near the hotel, golfers can bring their golf clubs too.
When it comes to your deck, porch, or patio area, you want to make sure that you have comfortable places to sit because if you do not, then you are not going to be able to truly enjoy the space. So, if you want nice seating, turn to lovely teak benches, they are a grand selection and would be a perfect addition to any outdoor area.What make teak benches such a nice seating option is a few different things really with the first being their relaxing design. This design features a longer, wider seating area that will sometimes curve to the contours of your body, plus, this larger seating area is perfect for a group of people. Not only is the simple design very comfortable, but you can also get ones with back and armrests and you can even purchase cushions for yours if you want to make it even more comfy than it already easy. Because of their relaxing design, one would be a nice choice for any outdoor space. Like, if you want some different seating options on your backyard deck, one would
It does not matter whether one is a newcomer to yoga or an experienced yogi because with the number of different yoga retreats available worldwide one can have a vacation at any of these yoga retreats that is unforgettable and which may work wonders for you. The yoga retreat vacation keeps you going for much longer than other vacations and nothing can seem to lessen its effects not even your boss or the long wait at the airport.There are plenty of yoga retreats simply begging you to come and visit them all around the world and one can stay in the US itself or travel to Bali or Costa Rica and of course, to India where it all began. There is plenty of choice as to how long the yoga retreat vacation ought to last and some may last a few days just to feel refreshed again or they may span weeks and one may get transported to a whole new world- the choice is entirely in the hands of the vacationer.Retreats to Suit Every Budget and DesireThe more enjoyable yoga retreats are those wh
By Edward Weiss You love the soothing sounds of relaxing piano music. But have you ever thought about actually going to your piano and creating it yourself? You can thanks to Edward Weiss's online piano course.This course teaches beginning adult students how to play piano using a chord-based approach. The lessons are designed in an easy step by step fashion that shows you what chords to play and how to improvise and create your own music.You already know how therapeutic listening to solo piano music is. Creating it on your own is much better because you're actually involved in the process. Making music forces you to be in the present. And once you get a taste of how good this feels, you'll want more and more.For instance, take the free lesson "Winter Scene" Here we have a relaxing piano lesson that teaches you to play 2 chords in your left hand while your right improvises melody.To the complete beginner, this may seem like a lot. And it is until you actually try it. Once you start t

Let's see .... Friday arrived at around 5:30 - then I stayed up until around 5:30A - Although I brought some extra stuff to work on, I am primarily working on Christmas Package Tags for a swap I'm in. Saturday morning we went to the Diner for breakfast, a quick trip to the local scrapbooking store, then back to the Kennilworth for a class at 10:30A (I was late).
I did finish the class project although it took me a total of about 5 hours to complete. I love it though. I have enough of the letters to make several more projects - I think the first one I'm going to do will spell out CATS. That would be four panels and I have four cats - so that would be perfect.
I'm spending a lot of time on the porch of the Kennilworth in the rocking chairs, just catching up with the girls. The pic at left is what the chairs look like at the beginning of the day, but by the end they're pulled into a gossip circle.
I do have to say that Sebring and the Kennilwo

the end everyone in the class learned those places by heart! On the next master
class, he said, everyone should know the pieces by heart before the first day!
Quite a challenge!

After the piano class I could finally go and relax with my colleagues. We
went to eat in a Japanese restaurant, and then to a cafe with live piano music.
Needless to say we had great time (except maybe not the one person who had
still some studying to do for tomorrow - she seemed a bit stressed

Actually I did! but getting to the vacation was a trip in itself! We started our vacation on Tuesday... Freeland celebrates the 4th of July on the 3rd so we had a wonderful evening of celebration. We followed that up with a small BBQ at our house. We can see everyone's fireworks from Marysville to Bellevue. It looks like downtown Baghdad! Most people who visit our house on the 4th smile when I say that but when the fireworks start... there is often stunned silence. It is great!
We got home from the vacation and I found a wonderful bouquet of flowers sitting outside our back door. Over a year ago a couple was coming up the hill off the ferry and had a flat tire. They called AAA but knowing how long it may take for the tow truck we invited them to come share a beer and our view with us as we sat out on our deck. They stopped by to thank us after all this time. It was a pleasure to help them and maybe make a new friend along the way.
I got back to work this morning and found a smal
Get this… when I try to relax, I get anxiety. Less so being on drugs, but it’s weird. If I try to meditate or do relaxation techniques, the mere thought of it brings up a lot of anxiety in me. I avoid things like that, then, even though I’ve heard and read that it can help so much.
For relaxation I watch TV or blog on the computer. Or knit.
I wonder that anything that sets me into a structure, that I feel like I must do, causes anxiety. And if I must relax, that triggers it. Maybe relaxing isn’t good for me then. I’m not sure if I should push through it, or just not do it if I don’t want to.
Hrm.
You will need:5 cups of Sea Salt (or Epsom salt, or a combination of both)1 Tsp. of Baking Powder2 Tsp. of Almond Oil5 drops Lime Scented Oil4 drops Basil Oil1 drop green coloring1 drop yellow coloring All you have to do is mix the salt and the baking powder in a bowl. In a another smaller bowl mix together all liquids and add to salts, stirring well. You should let them sit so they can soak up the scent and the coloring all of the way through. After they have sat for about two hours take them and place them in jars with cork stoppers. To create a good seal dip the cork in melted wax (green to match salts) and put cork into bottle.
Whew. I get to relax today! Might see if someone is still interested in adoptiong Sammy. That would be awesome. There was an inquiry when I was in Idaho. I haven’t heard back from them though so I always wonder. But we’ll see. I’m tired, sitting on the couch catching up on blogs and emails and everything. Lucy eating my edamame. Stargate SG1 is on all day so that’s a good thing to have on TV while I’m on the laptop.
I need a break from vacations. Wish I could take a week off and just say at home with the dogs. Someday I would love to do Crewed Yacht Charters, as we had a sailboat for a while, and I would sooo love to sail around for a while! Can’t take the dogs, though.
My holiday last summer was in Brazil, I have there friends and we spent gorgeous summer days in the beach. There are a lot of palm trees in the beaches, and in the afternoons we slept in the portable hammock, was great because the hammock was very comfortable, I ask to my friend Miguel where he have bought it and he said me that saw it through the HammocksRock.com website. This hammock is more light weight and more comfortable than others. On this website we can find lots of really nice hammock accessory, and also they have great hammock chairs, flexible and very solid chairs. Give it a look, see today!This is a sponsored post.
So we all want to relax at some point. While this is very much attainable, the problem that most of us ask ourselves is do we have the time to sleep to achieve relaxation? Sleeping is the easiest form of describing what relaxation is all about. Unfortunately, there are further restrictions which deprive us of reaching out goals. One of that is which is the need to be awake most of the time in order to fulfill separate tasks, mostly in connection with being able to provide the stuff needed for our dependents, families and of course, ourselves.
With this, we may consider sleeping as a culprit when relaxation is being discussed. It is not entirely about overall relaxing. It is about overall comfort to which sleep brings us to another subconscious dimension where we can find ourselves thinking we are living in another world for a temporary respite. Hopefully when we wake up, the realities of life are still there up and about for us to continue fulfilling.
How to sleep better, realities,
I got most of my way through editing my fox shots from this past weekend. The more I use Lightroom, the more I appreciate its features in being able to sort through a day’s shoot and do very quick editing of the keepers, shots destined for the trashcan, and the best of the lot. [...]

Sometimes I forget my toe is broken and I tap my foot to music or something and it aches and I remember. This, I think, is a good thing.We had a foyer dinner tonight with some of my mother's foyer people from church. Some homophobes were seated next to our friend who is transexual. This was interesting and went off without a hitch, which was a relief. I think the husband had no clue, but the wife was rather quiet. I think she suspected and was thinking snitty thoughts. Oh, well! No one left in a huff (whew!), a good time was had by all. The cats and baby were a big hit. The kids got to have a t.v. party in Mom's room.Oddly it is turning into an early bedtime night. Go figure.I've been wandering around over at 3 Quarks. It wows me. I think just skimming it might make one smarter. Except for the anti-gun sentiments. Which I just cannot agree with. At all. I hate it when only one set of stats is given to club some point into the reader. Bleh. Their other entries are much cooler. That'

Do you want to tour Europe's coastline but feel exhausted about the daunting task of packing and unpacking many times? The perfect solution is to take a cruise along Europe's coastline. There are numerous cruises offered for the Mediterranean, the North Sea, the Baltic and other coastlines of Europe. The cruise ships that ply those waters can range from 100 to 3000 passengers. All of the newer ships cruising Europe's coastline, while very large, offer more amenities, like private balconies. All of the cruise ships will have pools, spas and entertainment.
There are alternative ways to cruise Europe. You could for instance take a river cruise on the Danube or perhaps the Rhine. These luxurious cruise ships will gently ply the rivers passing beautiful scenery. They will stop at many ports so the passengers can get off and explore. These cruise ships are not tall like other cruise ships because they are designed to fit under the many bridges that span the river
Some mornings after I get up, Harmon just needs a snuggle. If I am on the computer and not paying him enough attention, I get little desperate paw taps on my leg until I turn every thought and focus on him. Lately I have been simply pulling him into my lap to snuggle, and he loves it; especially when he gets a really great chin rub out of me.
But then, I get mischevious, because who can do anything with 18 pounds of thick heavy fur on their lap? I mean the cute factor alone is highly distracting, the heavy purring is too relaxing to allow me to think, and the distance that it requires me to put between my keyboard and my hands is too great to work with, so instead of pushing him off my lap and seeing the way over-played hurt look he would use, I start doing pesky and irritating stuff like this:
Eventually, he realizes he’s had enough of me flipping over his ears, tickling the fur inside and giggling away at him, and he gets down on his own. I get to go back to my stuff, and he
