MOMS ARE BUSY PEOPLE

Moms are the busiest people on the planet.

Moms are like superheroes. They juggle everything from household budgets to healthcare decisions. They handle household chores and shuttle the kids to countless after-school activities, making home-life the full-time job that it is. And yet for many, it doesn’t stop there as they maintain full-time jobs and may also be caring for aging parents on top of all of the responsibilities at home.

Simple reminders for Mothers to take care of themselves and quotes to ponder.

• Do simple exercises every day.

• Take time as often as possible to do something just for you.

• Sing while working. Arthur Freed said,” I’m singing in the rain, just singing in the rain; What a wonderful feeling, I’m happy again.”

• Take a nap. Martha Steward said,”I catnap now and then, but I think while I nap, so it’s not a waste of time.”

• Kiss your love ones. Benjamin West said,”A kiss from my mother made me a painter.”

• Laugh out loud. Laughter is the best medicine.

• Sleep well. Leonardo da Vince said,”A well-spent day brings happy sleep.”

May these reminders help you to have a wonderful DAY,

EVERY DAY.

Just open up your arms

with nerve fibres which spring into action when we are

cuddled, hugged, massaged or gently touched.

They transmit the information back to the brain’s emotional hub,

creating feelings of pleasure.

Did you know that, if you visualise, you can actually hug on the phone? ~ Shelly Long

Where I live if someone gives you a hug it’s from the heart. ~ Steve Irwin

A hug is like a boomerang – you get it back right away. ~ Bil Keane

a hug without a squeeze

is like apple pie without cheese.

Happy Big Wind Day April 12

Why do we have a BIG WIND DAY?

The answer is blowing in the wind… or Gone with the wind…

On April 12th, 1934, surveyors at the observatory on Mt. Washington in New Hampshire, recorded the highest velocity natural wind ever measured on Earth. The “big wind”, which reached 231 miles per hour. This date is commemorated each year.

Today, a team of individuals live in the observatory at the 6,000-ft. summit and monotor the weather 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The wind is like the air, only pushier.

Look what the wind blew in….
