Slow-Down Sundays
October 27th, 2010 § Leave a Comment
I have implemented a new tradition in our household: Slow-down Sundays. Lately I have found that my weekends are not only busy but perhaps even busier than the work week. This happens when I try to cram in fun stuff with all the personal errands and tasks that couldn’t get done during the week. Lately my husband and I have been falling into a pattern of taking care of chores and errands late on Sunday because we had put off doing them, and then we panic about 2 or 3pm on Sunday when we realize the weekend is ending. Ugg. What an awful feeling, especially after enjoying a great Saturday.
Plus, my belly does the best when I eeeeeaasssseeee out of the weekend into my work week.
So, staying up late paying bills on Sunday night not only is a drag, but just isn’t good for my belly!
So…we’ve put parameters on our bill paying time by scheduling them into our work week, and then frankly, letting some other things go, (do we need a clean house before starting the week? No, not really.)
Now I’ve even started to look forward to Sunday nights when it’s quiet, some music is on, and we spend some time cooking for the week, reading, or just sitting and talking. Ahhhh, feels so much better!
What would you do on your “Slow down Sundays?” I’d love to hear, let me know!
