Our fearless leader Jamie has offered up this question this morning.."What is your spirit wishing for?" Well off the top of my head..not to be ill..I feel horrid this morning..ackkkk. Given a little more thought..I really need a vacation..two weeks with nothing to do. Right here at home..for two whole weeks without anyone else in my home but my own family..sleep in and do what ever I want. A week just isn't enough..I need two full weeks I think.
For years now I have been working full time and for the last several I have been running my own preschool and after care program here at home and also the artwork. I have kids here as early as 6:30 am daily and as late as 6pm. Although I did take three mornings off this year..which has been heavenly...I am working then too. All of this is good..I am happy and thankful I have work!! But after years of this..I really,really, really need a vacation.
This summer I took a full week off.. I ended up with the swine flu two days in and was sick as a dog the whole week. When did I feel better?. The first day kiddos where back! Last year and this I planned to take two full weeks during the holidays. Due to the economy last year I ended up taking kiddos most of that time anyway just to pay the bills. This year..I lost a couple of clients, one had a baby and the other's schedule changed..but it left me very short for the month sigh...so I will be taking kiddos during those two weeks again this year.
So...I need a vacation..I really do..every part of me needs one..my spirit, my body and my mind..all need a bit of a break. So..today my spirit wishes for a vacation. Yup that would work & maybe a day in there at the spa....mmmmm.... Namaste, Sarah

Sending prayers and warm wishes to you Sarah Darling!
I know that feeling!
As Sarah wishes for herself, so do I also wish for her with all my heart!
~as Sarah wishes for herself so i wish for her too~
Oh Sarah...if I only had a magic wand, I would tap it and all your wishes would come true. Do take care of yourself.....there is no one who could replace YOU!
sounds like you really do need a vacation! Treat yourself, you deserve it!
May your spirit's wishes come true.
Is there some way someone could help you with the little ones for a couple days? Just reading about all that you do each day makes me tired!
As Sarah wishes for herself, so I wish for her also. Oh I hope you can carve out those two weeks to take care of you. I read your profile on Jamie's site. We have a lot in common -- I too love macro shots. Your true north references made me smile as my venture is called True North Arts. Jamie will be profiling me next Thursday. I'll have to reread what I wrote...it may sound a lot like yours! Ha
Take care!

As Sarah Wishes for herself, I so lovingly wish for her as well!~
Wishing you some much deserved vacation time. You certainly deserve it my Dear Friend!~
Sending you healing wishes Sarah, for your mind/body and Spirit.. May you find the time to take a break and just relax and BE. As Sarah wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.

Oh no! I am so sorry that you are feeling so crappy. And yesterday it was such an important day with your interview. Hopefully all our wishes and good thoughts will help you feel better so you can go on vacation and truly heal.
Wishing you get your well deserved and well needed vacation! Until then take time for yourself when you can. I take baths when I can and very long showers. Scents help me just smelling a candle and closing my eyes I can make believe I'm in a fancy spa. If only for a moment. Sending wishing power your way! xoxo :) Becca
I hope your wish comes true, dear Sarah! and also that you'll be feeling better soon.
Hi Sarah,
Enjoyed your profile on Jamie's site. Cute photo.
I wish for you to replenish your body, mind and soul with a two week vacation of doing nothing! Think of it this way. If you do not take a vacation your body will take one for you and you'll lose even more income. Take the long-term, preventive approach!
Enjoy it. Giulietta the Muse

As Sarah wishes for herself, so do I! Yes, you need a vacation (and not just because you don't feel well) A REAL vacation! I hope it comes soon!!!

I hope you are able to find some time to relax and rejuvinate!
Get better soon! And get all vacationy too while you are at it. :)
Oh Sarah...I've been there! Take some time for yourself! I did the home daycare for 20 years!!!! Just can't do it anymore!
I wish for you for time to relax and take a well deserved vacation!

I am so sorry. I would come run your day care for you for two weeks if I could. You do deserve a vacation!
as Sarah wishes for herself so i wish for her too.
Yes, we all need a vacation!
Awwww...feel BETTER, FAST!
I swear by Matzo Ball Soup - Jewish mamas had it DOWN!
As Sarah wishes for her self, so I wish for her as well - 2 restful, relaxing weeks of VACATION!
Sarah: Me again. Have you ever used acupressure (not acupuncture - though based on the same meridiens) to treat illnesses. There are points on the forehead to rub for pink eye. Perhaps you could google 'acupressure points for .........' and see what you get. I send you love and hope you feel better soon.
I do hope you find a little bit of time to yourself so that you can heal.
As Sarah wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
Sarah, so sorry to hear your not feeling well! Sure hope your feeling better soon! You have been going non-stop you so deserve a long vacation. I hope you get that wish in the New Year!!
Brenda
Okay Sarah's spirit here is a cocktail and now get yourself on vacation. Leave your body behind and go.

Feel better soon and hang in there.
