Relax, Just do It

I woke up to two dogs staring me in the face, tails thumping on the bed.  Rolling over my eyes focused on the digital green numbers that said 4:54.  AM!  Ugh - yes, it is Sunday and my internal clock just can't let me go past 5 am.

I laid there a minute listing what had to be done today.  This, then that, go here, stop there .... I wrinkled up my nose and thought, "Why can't I just relax."  The thumping continues until I push myself up and out of the bed.  I started the coffee while the kids ran around the back yard welcoming the day.

I need to run around the back yard and welcome the day too.

Instead I mentally went through the list again and kicked off the items I can do tomorrow and settled down with the TV and my laptop.

Relaxing I am.

How do you relax?
