Tuesday @ Ten - BREAK



A last minute effort to link up with my friend, Karen, in writing from her prompt this week...well, last week!  It's Monday afternoon, and here I am getting it done!





Be sure to check out Karen's Facebook group for the Tuesday @ Ten followers here.



This week's prompt is:  BREAK


This word can be used in several ways:


  1.   Break into the bank...oh yeah!  Like I would?!  Or, break into the house - I forgot my key; so I'll break into the house; it's my house, anyway!
  2.   Take a break for a while...oh yeah!  Like I need a break?!  Actually, I could use a break; I'm feeling a little tired right now!
  3.   Give me a break...oh yeah!  A break?  A hand-up?  An easier way to...


Well, if I were to choose one of these, I think I'd pick number one - make that number two!

I do need a break at times...a break from the routine of "no routine" days.

I love my retired life; a life that can be slow and boring if I'd let it.

I love just being home and doing what I want when I want if I want!

But, those days get tiring after a day or two or three in a row!

I prefer to take a break from those types of days; and do something fun.

I love being able to hang out with my daughters and grandkids.  I love being able to go somewhere and do something with them, make last-minute plan and just go!

I love being available to attend a baseball game, or a karate event, or even to babysit one of the younger grandkids, if that is what I want to do, or if I am needed.

I love meeting my friends for some crafting, or even some shopping; not to mention a road trip to Epcot, during the week when others may be working or in school!

Take a break?  Yes, I also take those when I am tired from household chores - which I do very little of; I hate housework, but it is a necessity.

When I take a break, it's usually to watch a TV show or read or maybe even do a little crafting or coloring.



Today, I am getting some computer work done; reading...and that makes me tired!  I am also trying to get some writing done; a couple of posts that I need want to get written.

And, I am tired!

So, I think I am going to take a break and go relax for a while; and maybe I will take a nap!

And, that is my Tuesday @ Ten post for Break!



Thank you, Karen Beth, for stretching my brain and getting this post done in time!
