“I planned with my sister for her to watch
my husband on her day off and I treated myself to a
day treatment at a local spa. It was much more
cost-effective than a nervous breakdown!”
“I contacted a local senior service last Friday
night and went out for dinner and a movie with my
husband. It seemed like forever since we were alone
like that. Later this summer, I’m going to take
advantage of their overnight care so we can spend
the night away.”
"My son’s volunteer group from high school are a
real blessing. They came over last week for a few
hours to entertain my dad, who recently had a
stroke. I was able to get out of the house and go to
my gym again."
Once you have your fill of chocolate bunnies and
hot cocoa, sit down a spell and email me your own
respite tips to share within this column.
Happy holidays and let’s get respiting!
