You are right about the women who would work on their homes and then sit for a short rest. I hadn't thought about that in a long while. We may be more of the opposite these days. ~ginaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371073021296866617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-12519992643749331322015-01-28T10:03:11.421-05:002015-01-28T10:03:11.421-05:00Indeed!

I was, however productive in my writing and tackled a "big thing" that's been looming over my head. One more day, though, and I would have become lazy. I would think that taking care of grandbabies is tougher than taking care of one's own babies. We're older!

I know as I have a medical condition that makes me feel tired and another that causes extended time standing painful.Being a homeschooling mum of 5 I often find myself needing to relax on the recliner. However too much time resting is detrimental to my energy. My solution is to sit in the recliner for between 15 to 30 minutes then get up and accomplish a task then rest again. The trick is to not rest to the point where malaise sets in. I also hate the heat in summer and at that time try to get more tasks achieved in the evening when it is cooler.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-29802307182696601772015-01-27T19:55:59.509-05:002015-01-27T19:55:59.509-05:00Dear Mrs. White,

God certainly did not intend for our bodies to sit around all day. :) Thank you for your blog.

I am worn out when I watch my 3 yr. old grandson. I am glad that exercise helped you. I know how hard it is to find time for yourself. Don't feel bad about taking a nap though. Take care of yourself. I hope you feel well today. I'm praying for you.<br />God bless.<br />Chris<br />So Much At Home A Salty Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11113715612538568776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-64809633540188299782015-01-26T18:57:16.969-05:002015-01-26T18:57:16.969-05:00Thanks for sharing this.
