can you feel the love tonight

Incredibly, given that the films I most enjoy are “kids” ones, I have to confess I've never seen The Lion King. This week I'm motivated to watch it having both enjoyed a blog recommending it, and my daughter has just sung a medley of songs at her school concert. So I'll check out the library tomorrow and see if we can view it after my course this saturday.


I've just reached the chapter on rest in one of the books I'm reading. The irony is I read it in the 2 min burst of “me time” that other than my blog, seems to be all the downtime I have at the moment. I'm finding the never-ending tasks a bit much right now, so a reminder of the importance of rest is timely. The chapter speaks of unscheduled time, of lying on our backs and just being. So tomorrow morning in the window of opportunity between taking the car to the garage (again!) and running group, I'm going to go outside and lie on my back. No matter what the weather. Probably on the trampoline rather than the grass – I know where my grass has been. And next time the sun shines, I will go and lie in some grass elsewhere. I need to reconnect a bit...
