hammock time

after a busy day at work and a trip to the grocery store, i came home feeling overwhelmed and worn out. i wondered how i would possibly get everything accomplished that i needed to. luckily i have a husband that's really good at cheering me up. he set up the hammock in our backyard and it felt like we were back in hawaii! 20 minutes of reading and staring at the palm tree above me and i was rejuvenated and ready to attack every item on my to-do list. i always tell my clients to take time for themselves to relax and de-stress, but sometimes i forget to do those things myself. so i've hired rich as my health coach. i'm guessing his advice will usually involve hammocks, icecream and bike rides. i'll take it!

the backyard today...

hawaii a few weeks ago...

p.s. thank you nate and angie for the hammock!! it's our favorite piece of furniture!
UPDATE: rich just read this and said it sounds like he put me in time out in the backyard because i was grumpy. haha! he actually hung out in the hammock with me part of the time until he had to go back to studying. :) i probably did need a time out!
