Resting, Relaxing and Recovering

This is my plan for the day:  to TAKE IT SLOW.  I plan to do a lot of reading, and quite a bit of writing.  My favorite advise for writers is to read, read, read everything you can get your hands on, all different genres, and then to write, write, write in all different styles and experiment with different genres.  So that is my plan, and hopefully that rest and stillness will help me to recover from my neck injury.  Resting was not my original plan, as there are big goings-on at my church that I wanted to be a part of, but God had other plans for me.  I had to step back-way back-and unplan all the plans I had.  Mr. M and I are going on a trip after the crazy busyness of this week, and this trip will not only be fun and rejuvenating, but also a needed time to get some serious family business taken care of.  I need to be 100% for that, so I can't risk re-injuring my neck.  I've learned that priorities are vital to a happy, successful life.  In this down time, God has shown me a lot about the blessings I have in my church friends who have been so helpful in giving me advice, and also the great blessing of neighbors who are so kind as to bring me food and help me out in other ways.
