Ahhhhhhh!!!!!

It's summer, I'm a teacher, I'm not supposed to be stressed! What the Hell?

Here are some thoughts for today if you are as stressed as I am, maybe they'll help!

The time to relax is when you don't have time for it. ~Attributed to both Jim Goodwin and Sydney J. Harris

Stress is nothing more than a socially acceptable form of mental illness. ~Richard Carlson

There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want. ~Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes

Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering. ~Pooh's Little Instruction Book, inspired by A.A. Milne

Some of the secret joys of living are not found by rushing from point A to point B, but by inventing some imaginary letters along the way. ~Douglas Pagels, These Are the Gifts I'd Like to Give to You

Sometimes it seems your ever-increasing list of things to do can leave you feeling totally undone. ~Susan Mitchell and Catherine Christie, I'd Kill for a Cookie

Stress is the trash of modern life - we all generate it but if you don't dispose of it properly, it will pile up and overtake your life. ~Danzae Pace

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once. ~Jennifer Yane

Slow down and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you. ~John De Paola

How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then to rest afterward. ~Spanish Proverb

Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are. ~Chinese Proverb

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time. ~J. Lubbock

There must be quite a few things that a hot bath won't cure, but I don't know many of them. ~Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Great idea! I'm off to take a candlelit bubble bath, listen to some relaxing music, and have a glass of wine! TaTa for now! :)
