Taking care of yourself.

Hi, would like to pass on a tip that I found very helpful when I first  divorced.  Had 3 young children, very little money and lots of work to do.  One day a week was for relaxing and enjoying being together - the children and I, so we packed a picnic on Saturday evenings and off we went for the day on Sunday. 

Always try and have something to look forward to at the week end, trip to the park, walk, going to a museum.  You will need to know what you are going to do swimming, collecting blackberries, look at some ruins, take photos gather a few things together during the week ready.

Monday morning you, and the children, feel happy looking back over  the week end. 

If you look after your  well being you will improve your health and be able to look after the children, work and most things that life throws at you.

But, how does an older person look after themselves and improve their wellbeing??  Any tips will be most welcome!  Thank you!!
