    When you are resting while you are worn out, you need to remember that you are not wasting the day doing nothing. You are doing exactly what you need to do. You are recovering .

    What is your favorite thing to do while letting your body recuperate?

        It was so helpful during COVID to give a way to have interaction with friends as well!

    I enjoy getting on a cushioned lounger outside and reading, when it’s not too hot & humid. If I happen to doze off then my body must need it.

    Cuddle up with my daughters if they are home and watch a silly series  on TV. [I never watch tv during the day when I have energy]

    Have one of my kids read me a book

    Watch or listen to the news

    Listen to music

    Speak to friends on the phone

    Nap and cuddle with the cat.

      Nighttime is my downtime too. Love to watch shows with my husband on TV. We like to watch anything on Food Network or Travel Channel.

    I love to sit outside on my back deck and watch the birds, squirrels and chipmunks while setting in the sun. No worries, no TV, wave and talk to neighbors out walking or just wave and smile. We have our own Barney Fife here We love it…. Smile
