I’ve spent the past week on vacation. I spent the first day working outside burning brush in the snow. I had been waiting since last fall to do that. The next day I got sick…and stayed sick all week. So, instead of several days doing spring clean-up I spent several days doing some genealogy research on Anita’s side. Fun, but not what I had been planning.

I also took a two-week sabbatical from this blog. I did so because I needed a break. Daily postings had become burdensome and wasn’t fun anymore. But I’m back.

Perhaps there’s something in your life that has become burdensome and you need to take a break. The principle of the sabbath works in all areas of your life.
