Hello all

Long time no talk. I just returned from our holiday in New Brunswick, what a feeling of relief to just get away from it all.
I had stress from student loans, work, family, it was all piling up to the point where I could hardly control it.
Living life while depressed and stressed is not the way to be. Trust me, I have been there too often in my life.

My suggestions are not to let the stress engulf you or smother you like I have done.
For me getting away for two weeks was a godscend. At times I was at the end of my rope but no more. I am living for me.

If you can't take a trip somewhere, just take a break.
Go for a drive in the country, talk a walk in the park, pack a picnic. Just take sometime for yourself.I have never done this, I was too busy doing everything for everyone.

Hubby and I packed a lunch and took it to Magnetic Hill and ate lunch with the tigers and the bears. How relaxing and rejuvenating this was.

Just wanted to give you an update.
