A Day of Relaxation

Yesterday was a hectic day as we took off to Alton Towers for Thrills n Spills - how exhausting can riding rollercoasters actually be !! Well the answer is very ... and my throat feels rough from trying to be cool and prevent myself from screaming.

So today is one of those rare days dedicated to relaxation ... but first I have to tidy the front room and kitchen, then I have to go fetch the ingredients for the chicken and spinach curry I am making for tea - then I need to walk the boys... then I need to make that curry.

So maybe a day of relaxation is not what it seems... or is it? - the fact that I want to do these things rather than having to do them makes them relaxing, the pleasure I get from cooking something that is enjoyed, seeing the happy trotting of the boys and then being able to start my lace project tonight guilt free knowing that the housework is complete and being able to shut the front door to the world is in itself the perfect way to relax!
