Relaxation Station… (or game #2)
Did you know that today is NOT just NanaHood.com’s 2nd birthday… but it’s also “National Relaxation Day“? Â (Because every day must be a national “something” day).
I read somewhere that there is a push to make “Relaxation Day” an OFFICIAL holiday. Â I’m not sure who thinks up such things, but I’m glad to celebrate this very special “national” holiday, how about you?

My favorite place to relax is on the lake … once everyone if fed and happy! I also have to admit, my anxiety levels drop whenever I hope my grandchildren. Ahh, the greatest feeling in the world.
A good book while relaxing in a chair on the beach……or in my pool!!!!!! And a mani and pedi isn’t a bad way either!
My favorite thing to do on a “Relaxation Day” would be to curl up with a good book and a diet Dr. Pepper…and preferably have the house to myself!
My ultimate way to relax is to go to the beach and just walk for a bit then find a log to sit on and listen to the white noise of the ocean. It is truly a wonderful place to be. I know it’s a drive to get there, 1.5 hours away but it’s fun for me! Then I go find something yummy seafood wise to eat! It’s my favorite place in the world to be, besides my own bed!
I love to sit in the yard around the firepit late at night, make smores, count stars, and listen to the kids laugh and talk.
Happy Birthday NanaHood! Well, I will start out by saying I would love to relax right now but I have a Daycare full of children so I will do it tonight. I would love to get in a nice relaxing bath, then read a good book and talk to my children on the phone before I go to bed. There’s something relaxing knowing that your grown children and grandkids are doing okay. Then last, but not least, kiss my husband, pray and sleep. Awwww! Precious sleep! I’m all for a National Relaxation Day every year. Maybe my parents would take off work and then I would be off. We can only hope!
My way of relaxing is sitting in a recliner on the screened-in porch in early evening hours, listening to the waterfall in the pool in the back yard. If the moon comes up while I’m there, so much the better!!
