Stay-cation

I took a week off from work because my kids were off on Monday, I needed a break from the every day grind, and I didn't want to lose any vacation days this year. Each day I wrote a post on Facebook listing what I considered my adventures for the day. I posted photos of my dad on an old tractor, me on a newer tractor, my kid's projects and accomplishments (National Honors Society, bike rides, a 5K) and a Jamie Grace concert.

Looking back, I feel like I accomplished quite a bit around the house, got some errands done and was able to spend a whole lot more time with my kids. I even cooked - actual sit down meals! It was amazing how much I felt like going the extra mile because I had the time to plan and the energy to get it done. The days flew by, but it was a joyful week of staying home and spending time with my family.

Ecclesiastes 5:20 For he will not dwell unduly on the days of his life, because God keeps him busy with the joy of his heart.
