A wonderful blogger friend Rachel... who has been so supportive asked.... what do you do to wind down? What kind of fun stuff do you enjoy? (my list would be all FOOD, so I'm sure you are far more interesting, LOL)
Oh Rachel...Food has always been really big on my list to cover all the bases. It has been my best friend on some VERY hard days at the hospital ...I ended up weighing 223 pounds ..One day I realised I was as upset being heavier and eating as I was facing life. So the diet began and I lost 95 pounds. Know what happen ? After I got down with my weight and was on a way too strict not so healthy diet..Philip was in the hospital..I gained 15 pounds in 2 weeks. That was a reality. Then know what happen the next time? Philip was in ICU for weeks and I stayed hard core on plan and almost had a nervous breakdown. I had no idea how much I depended on food.
Oh wow I just realised that is not the question you asked me. But I will go ahead and just keep this here...
Now Rachel..How about I answer that question..
I LOVE to take bubble baths...I LOVE candles..I LOVE all smell good stuff. Especially for the house. My new favorite scents are cucumber and I love coconut. I love getting pedicures..they make me feel so spoiled...Wish I could get them every month. Heck I wish I could teach Emily to do them. And the idea of getting another massage is just heaven. So I guess I like spoil Amy things...maybe we need a girl weekend away to do some of these..wanna join me?
My new sweet friend Lianna ( who I am so glad I have found on blogger and Tweeter ) asked...
with all the things going on in your life, what do you do for YOU??? I know you always put everyone else in your family first (which is what I try to do too), but sometime a girl just needs her time. So what, if you could, would you do for YOU??
I think I answered a lot of these things above. I LOVE smell good stuff. I love bubble baths...I am thinking about trying to buy one of those cloth pillow for the tub to use when I am not feeling well and have a headache. Bubble bath and a candle..and lotion ...Heaven.
I also would love to try to get a massage soon. I have been looking at some signs around town ..I think they are taunting me..LOL.
Oh and one new thing I LOVE is very strong smelling..what are they called? The smelly sticks you light..I found some one time before that were real strong and smelled wonderful. Now all I can find are wimpy ones.
So if you know of any ESTY ladies who make them or sell them..Let me know.

YAY! I was starting to get a complex when the first 7 posts didn't have any of my questions. I was thinking "darn it Rach, you should have picked more interesting questions!"
And I'm glad you answered the way you did... I think a lot of us struggle with food and stress (I know I do - from both ends of the spectrum). It's one of those ways that we end up having to depend on God to show us the balance we need.
And I love all those things you shared too! Well, except for the massage. I am SOOOO ticklish... after my car accident, I giggled my way through a physical therapy massage and that was enough for me.
Have you tried that pedi-egg? Those things are WOW for girls like me who can only get out for a pedicure once a year if that! LOL
Oh yeah - I think those scented sticks are incense?
Still praying for your family... every one of them!
So late here but great questions and answers..If you have time to answer, I wanted to ask this..you are such an inspiration, what and or who inspires you?
