Permission to relax.

One of the things I find most difficult is to relax.
I'm always busy - you might say I'm an active relaxer.... or you might agree with my husband and decide that I just never stop working.
But relaxing is important, and I'm always trying to improve my work/life balance, so I guess I've just got to learn to relax a bit, and stop every once in a while.  My husband would say that I should do as I say as I am always reminding him that he should learn to relax.
So today we've had a lazy day.  I didn't get out of bed until nearly 9am (extremely unusual for me - 6am is more like it!) and then I enjoyed a long hot bath and a good book (which was about business practices, but at least I relaxed while I read it!)
Then I jumped back into bed for a cuddle with my husband as he woke up - and I dozed off and woke up again at 12.15!
Since then I've been busy but chilled out.  I've done some baking, sorted some photos from the in-laws' visit, cooked a roast dinner and done most of the ironing.
It's been a lovely day, warm and sunny, and I've thoroughly enjoyed relaxing - both varieties... lounging around in my pyjamas, and just pottering around.
Permission to relax?   I guess I granted it for myself!
