Three self-care things you did today!

[ecomama]

We can do it BBers, we can do self-care.

Sleepy21 pointed out research that shows self-care REALLY helps!

Please share what you do for self-care so we can get inspiration, ideas and motivation to do it too.

Best wishes
EM

Awww snuggle time with birdies, love that!

I reckon we can set our own code of conduct for what constitutes self care so ABSOLUTELY making a mindblowingly delicious cake IS self care lol!
OMG my mouth watered reading that!

I hugged my lilly pilly after posting lol.

Sure, go hug a tree and feel the LERVE!

Love your post Blue's Clues... awesome

Self care

Someone who I have emailed for a few years is deciding to write mean emails .

i decided to ignore and be kind to myself rather than react and then regret what I said.

i like that way of approaching self-care....nice one quirky

Decided not to go to a social event I wasn't ready for

Made myself a hot chocolate

Went to the health food store to pick up things I like

Dear quirky.... absolutely that's SELF-CARE...

We have a little group on mine and Bluberry's threads who are PURGING the nutters from our lives!

HOW DARE THEY quirky. Ban that person.

When there are so many beautiful, kind, caring and supportive ppl in this world, the nutters can go jump.

You can be very proud of yourself, I'm proud of you too!

Love EM

WELL DONE Sleepy21!

I'm loving your boundaries! (and yours too quirky lol).

You're stepping this self-care thang up a notch Sleepy lol.... the HEALTH food store?
GO YOU!

My favourite thing from the health food store is Weleda hand cream lol... I bought stacks of stuff like homeopathics etc earlier this year and they really helped... either they did or the placebo did lol... either way they did!

You're really showing us how it's done with your self-care Sleepy, thankyou!

Love EM

Thanks, EM. 🙂 Great work, Quirky (with a nod to EM & Blueberry for same). I'm on board with the concept of purging unhealthy relationships from one's life, have done a lot of it, myself.

Today's self care:

1) Unreasonably long sleep-in. It was cosy in there!

2) Continuing on a theme... breakfast cupcake! (Also home-made - chocolate, with a bit of whipped cream and the fanciest sprinkles I own on top, hehe.)

3) Celebrating hatchday of my first born birdie with our little family.

HI Blue's Clues

Lol is there such a thing as an unreasonably LONG sleep in? I think that's awesome!

Happy hatchday li'l birdie! so sweet.

1. I was lucky to get any sleep at all with the party at my house last night lol... the kids were quiet but 15 kids in the house... yah... LATE night.
So I slept is my self-care lol.

2. I took time out from the housework and mattresses everywhere lol to watch the grandchildren on an indoor climbing thingy and it was INCREDIBLE... so cleverly designed. The kids had a BALL and it was nice to smile and laugh with them.

3. We had a yummy Chinese lunch and I got to bring the leftovers home! double yum lol.

Busy day today. But it was such a beautiful day outside.

Dug a hole, put a wood post in, and concreted it in to put the last corner on our shade sail. Showed my son how its done.

fixed a burst pipe in the lawn. Also showed my son how to fix it.

replaced 2 fly wire screens. Which my daughter desperately wanted to help with.

Watched the kids jumping through the sprinkler.

Took in all the smells of the spring flowers in the garden.
