Take care of yourself by spending time with people who lift your spirits.
- I called my brother, John, and chatted with my niece for her birthday.
- I wished the great women at the Herring Run Branch Library Merry Christmas.
- I made plans with my friend, Gloria, to visit *manly workplaces* tomorrow and help guys with last minute holiday shopping.

My brother told me, *Like they say in the airplane, put on your own oxygen mask before helping someone else.*
Happy Holidays!

Taking care of ourselves is so important in so many ways–body, mind & spirit.
I enjoyed reading lots of your comments about taking care of self by doing things that fill the spirit. I talk about these things on my other blogs as well…
