Some people go shopping to refresh their minds and spirit, other people play video games or sports. Me? I have to get in touch with Mother Nature. And lemme tell you, Nature loathes me.
I swear every time I venture out into this wide world, something horrid happens. You, my dear friends, know about the recent skunk episode. If not, here you go, http://threegnomes.blogspot.com/2011/10/embarressing-moment-alert.html
Anyways, this weekend was a farm filled weekend. For three days I resided near a black barn that was nestled in the mountains. Not only did I milk a cow, I also made a farm hand seriously grossed out when I slipped in the goat dung.
I touched a lily pad. Okay, that happened when a rock near the water wobbled under my foot and my sorry-butt went careening into the lake. But hey, I touched a lily pad and that's what matters. Plus, I got a nice shot with my camera, so all is good.
I walked in the rain and got chased by a ticked off goat named Louis.
Drama followed me around every corner and strangely, I feel rejuvinated. Which leads me to a novel idea, instead of pushing ourselves to exhaustion, let's all take a moment for ourselves.
Do what recharges you-doesn't matter what it is, just recharge your battery.

I just pet Louis on the screen. I think I'm attached already. No Nature girl? ;o
Recharging & adaptability are musts.
I like to go for a walk. I also like to haul stone or maybe even stack wood. It's the full body workout idea only I'm actually accomplishing something. Also, I like to sit and watch movies. Especially Jane Austen types. Emma - the long version- is on my list for this weekend.
Sounds like fun, and thanks for the thought. This is a good time of the year to remember to pace ourselves.
I gots to know did UR wiglet fall out
Mother Nature doesn't loath you... she might find it funny to tease you though....
