Took some time off recently. Had some extended time with the kids, including a road trip for a few days.

Soul Time. Or so I thought. Mostly. I found myself challenged to unplug my head from “work mode”; I found myself still short, snippy with the kids at times; I found myself pushing the pace like I try to do at work, and during most week days.

How much can I get done? What else can I squeeze in? What unforeseen problems am I not considering?

Then it hit me: EASY DOES IT. What’s the purpose of time off from work, but rest and reset with those you love most…including yourself.

I hope that hits me a lot more often. I need that reminder. You only get one crack at life ~ easy does it ~ and make it GOOD.
