Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Tuesday

Too Steep

Lady Grey and Darjeeling thought today, would be a good day to go on a bike adventure, but it wasn't long before they ran out of steam and came to a complete standstill.

Lady Grey: I'm telling you this hill is too steep to ride up on bikes!

Darjeeling: Okay, the sun's out, let's walk then.

Sunday

Naughty Boys

Wi and Pi were most concerned about the safety of Mossy and Hollow, they tried their utmost to coax them own off the roof, but boys will be boys!

Misty was so disgusted, she just shook her fist and threatened them with a good beating if they didn't get own immediately!

It's not often that Misty gets mad, but when she does, you had better watch out! I certainly don't want to be around when she gets her hands on these two!

Thursday

Fairies in the Dell

I've been kinda busy these past few days, but nothing really exciting to share. Spent a couple of days at the movies with my guy, did a little shopping at Knox, managed to finish Wi's little dress and circlet, and got a little more knitting done, but that's about it.

I took a few pics today of them with the pumpkin candle holder which I purchased at Dusk with a gift card my daughter gave me last Christmas. (I also got a little white house which I'll show you later.)

The mossy mat I purchased to go around my Ent's feet turned out to be a complete waste of money, it just shed fibre everywhere and made a ruddy big mess for me to clean up! Not at all happy! I might see if I can lay my hands on an offcut of fake grass lawn when we next visit our local Bunnings store.

I always live in hope, although I have just about given up on my April Story doll ever arriving before we go on holiday. Anyone thinking of purchasing from them BEWARE ~ they tell huge fibs!!!
