Day 27 of my 40-Day blogging through Lent adventure. It’s all about busyness today. So I’m going to go practical today. 

I took a vacation day. I’m spending it doing a combination of what I want and what I need. Which means taking a nice long walk with my husband enjoying this beautiful spring weather. It means slowly sipping a hot cup of freshly roasted coffee while reading through the book of Acts. It means chopping, mincing, whisking and slow-cooking ingredients for an amazing Irish Beef Stew. It means buying a couple of donuts for my kid who’s a little under the weather. It means going to my Curves two hours later so I can see some old workout buddies. It means savoring my free minutes so when it does get hectic (tomorrow and the rest of the week), I can relax and remember. 

What would you do if you could plan a day for yourself? Less or more?

Busyness keeps my tank running on fumes. Like putting a gallon of gas in my car each day, praying I won’t run out before I get back in bed that night. Plan some time for yourself.
