TIME TO UNWIND
Visitors are like fish, they are best gone after three days.........or they stink after three days. What ever......any way, for those of us who have company or have been company at someone's home for more than that all know the need for "unwinding". You can only be a good host/hostess for so long before you get cranky and need to unwind. You can't be entertaining 24/7. It just does not happen! How do you unwind? Read a book, take a walk, LOG ON TO THE COMPUTER. Simple little things. Things that keep your sanity and make you more fun to be around. I only get to see my family once a year if I'm lucky. I don't spend my ENTIRE vacation with them. Don't get me wrong, I love them dearly and freak out that "this may be the last Yule I spend with my dad" crap. But I know he needs his space and Goddess knows I need mine. What I am getting at, is that it is not rude or selfish to take some time to yourself first thing in the morning or late in the evening to unwind and give yourself some "me" time.
