Flying A Kite



Flying a kite brings back so many happy childhood memories for me! The last couple of springs I have worked a lot. So this spring I am determined to spend more time outside. I have made a list of fun things that I like to do that I haven't done in a long time.

One of them is flying a kite! Yesterday there was a gentle breeze so I took my kite and went to the park that is a couple blocks from my house. It was the perfect afternoon break! I came back ready to work for a couple of more hours!

Are there things that you love to do that you haven't done for awhile? What are they?

Today is a beautiful spring day for flying a kite!

Taking The Afternoon Off


Today I took the afternoon off! It was spontaneous and fun! We went to an afternoon matinee! We had pop and popcorn! Sometimes you have to put your work aside for a couple of hours and do something that is out of character!

When was the last time you took the afternoon off and what did you do that was spontaneous and fun?

I Am Proud I Live In America's 2nd Fittest City Minneapolis-St. Paul


I am proud I live in America's 2nd Fittest City Minneapolis-St. Paul! In the second annual American Fitness Index (AFI), a publication released by the American College of Sports Medicine we ranked #2!

The index measures each city's performance on 30 indicators, including acres of parkland, death rate from cardiovascular disease, the number of primary care physicians per capita and the percent of residents who bicycle or walk to work. The metrics were gathered from government and non-profit organizations. (For the complete methodology, visit www.americanfitnessindex.org.)

I read the article on Forbes.com tonight! Now I'm off for a bike ride around the lake! Enjoy your night!

Daydreaming


It was a beautiful spring day yesterday so I spent some time daydreaming! I sat outside in my back yard and looked up into the sky. The sky was so blue and the clouds were so white. I let my mind wander.

I find daydreaming so relaxing. My stream of consciousness is spontaneous. Afterwards I always feel invigorated and refreshed.

I would love to do this every day. Maybe I should make time each day for daydreaming! Who knows where it will lead me!
