Hello and welcome to the home of Word of the Week. A nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. The idea of the linky is to reflect back on your past week and share it with us. It’s great if you can sum it up in a word or phrase, hence giving us your Word of the Week. My word this week is ‘Resting’ and you can read more about that below.
I’m not totally strict on using just a word or phrase. But please try to stick to the theme of summing up your week. There are not too many rules with this linky, just remember to read at least another couple of posts in the link up after adding your link. I will read and comment on all posts and tweet them out for you. I also have a Pinterest board devoted to Word of the Week and I will add posts to Mix Please add the badge below to your post so that others may find us and join in.

MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Resting
Last week I left you as we were entering the Easter Weekend and it was my niece’s birthday. She had a big party but unfortunately I wasn’t well enough to go. The rest of my family went though and they got dressed up in their 90s fancy dress. The girls went as Pokemon and Graham went as The guy from The Prodigy, The Firestarter. The Other two went with 90s Tee shirts on. They had a great night, I’m just sad I couldn’t be there. But as I was so ill resting was all I could do.
The rest of the weekend was quite peaceful. I managed to get the rest of the food for dinner so we had a nice meal. The Little Man enjoyed an Easter Egg Hunt which I made for him using small eggs and chocolate bunnies. The girls thought they were too old now…how sad.
The rest of the week has been quite peaceful. And although I am better now, I’ve got there by lots of resting. The girls have done lots of resting by staying in bed a lot! I guess a few days of being lazy doesn’t hurt.
Graham hasn’t been resting much though. He’s managed to do some gardening and fix the shed roof. I could have given him a million other jobs to do but I’m not that cruel.
We’ve been out shopping today, Thursday, so guess what I’m going to be doing this weekend…yes, a bit more resting…back to school and routine next week.
Now it’s over to you, what word or phrase sums up your week this week?
Sometimes all you can do is listen to your body and rest. My kids are very good at resting as well, my husband, like Graham, not so good. I hope the rest has helped. have a good week.
We all need rest days! Sorry you missed your niece’s birthday. Hope you are feeling better now. I was going to boycott the egg hunt this year, but their was universal outcry when I suggested it. I suspect I’ll still be doing it when they are in their thirties at this rate. Good for Graham fixing the shed roof. One of ours took a battering during the storms, but is now fixed. Enjoy your restful weekend.
So sorry you have been unwell and missed the party. I am glad you are feeling better now.
It is sad that our girls think they are too old for Easter egg hunts although my youngest did do one organised by her friends mum the other week and had the best time.
Well done Graham, it sounds like he has been busy.
You do right resting, enjoy your weekend before you get back to the normal routine next week x
Sorry that you were too unwell to attend the party. Glad you are feeling better now and that resting has helped. Lovely to have an Easter egg hunt for Little Man although I can imagine it’s sad when children outgrow these things. Hope you have a nice weekend to finish off the Easter break. #WotW
Sorry you’ve not been well, sometimes resting is the only thing to do in order to feel better. My Hubby and Madam are very good at resting… me and Sir not so much!
Glad you felt better after your rest, though I am sure you were disappointed to miss the party.
Who knew that someone could ever be too old for chocolate eggs??
I can relate I need rest days to recouperate as days whe. It is busy can take so much energy, it is all about balance x #mmbc
