I rarely take a day off. After working in the same place for 25 years, I've accumulated about 6 months of sick leave and 45 days of vacation time. I feel blessed to have had good health and I do take off about 4 weeks each year, but to just take a random day off is unusual because I begin to think of all of the things I need to do at work. However, after a couple of 6 day work weeks, I was really tired and needed a break. I took a day off on Friday.
It was a great day! I had fun running around, doing errands, picking up supplies, shopping and shopping some more. I even bought a new dress for Mother's Day. And I ate a burger and fries just because I could. :)
Ecclesiastes 3:12-13 I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives, and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor - it is the gift of God.
I was busy and on the go, but it was just what I needed and exactly what I wanted to do. Friday was definitely a gift from above.
