13th June Lucky Snapping week 2 - RELAX

This week it is Anne's Silver Lining challenge and we are ar the last letter in SILVER R for RELAX

Immediately I thought of this tune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyl5DlrsU90 Do any of you remember it?!!

Well my whole life since retiring is one long relax or so I thought until I read the meaning of relax

  • Loosen one's grip
  • be less strict
  • reduce intensity
  • relieve tension/strain
So maybe I have got enjoy and relax mixed up?

Anyway here some photos to show you all know how I relax
Always relaxed with my friend Carol and our favourite summer spot is a quiet beach nr where I used to live This was the beginning of Oct last year
 Maybe not so relaxed when DGC are around!!
Peter and I as NT members often have a relaxing day out at some of the NT gardens and properties nr us

I mustn't forget how relaxing holidays are for us to get away from daily life and family :)
Of course the other things I do to relax is read, scrap, watch TV and just sit in the garden enjoying blue skies and sunshine with a glass of red wine

Yes I certainly know how to relax these days after years of bringing up children and working full time too!

  1. Nice tune ! I remember yes.
    Gosh you make me wish I would be retired. I am afraid I haven't honored my relax week at all, as I have a dead line for tomorrow and work like completely nuts. But nice to see some can relax for me, lol. xxx

  5. I know just what you mean about retirement. Everything we do is a form of relaxation. I just need to do less.
