Welcome Home Sunday Week 72 Coffee Table in Sunroom

Yesterday, I worked out in the yard pulling weeds from our neglected garden beds.

When I came inside, my son looked at me and said, “Whoa, Mom! You’re really sunburned!”

I found that odd since I had been working in the shade for just over an hour.

So I went to mirror to check it out and I was red as a beet complete with a soaked shirt.

But I knew the culprit.

I was overheated. When I workout, or do any physical labor, the first place I sweat is my face.

So I took his cue to pause for a moment and rest.

Obviously I needed a cool down.

And I realized that I was working myself way too hard. So when I went back out, I moved slower. But I found something in the process.

Contentment.

Prior to that break, I was frazzled and hurried just to get the job done. But afterward, I found myself singing along with the music and enjoying myself.

So, I hope this encourages you the next time you’re frazzled to stop, take a break, and move at a slower pace.

You just might find yourself smiling, too!

Now onto this week’s posts! We are so excited that the Oh-so-talented Ann, from Dabbling and Decorating, is joining us! Ann is a fellow vintage lover and I can always find inspiration from her home!
