I don't know how many of you work, or if you have weekends off, but let this weekend be the best one you have ever had.

If you have kids, have a party with them.  Pull the dining room chairs together, get some sheets to toss over them and make an old fashion fort.  Tell stories, eat candy. Turn off the TV and spend time with your kids to let them know they are a priority to you.

If you don't have any children, or they are away, and you have a mate, have a party with you mate.  Put on some music and dance.  It doesn't matter if you are good or not.  Put on some clothes from your closet that you never wear, because you never have any where to wear them.  Order some take out and have a great time enjoying each other.  Watch leaves blow outside and talk about what you would do if you could ride a magic carpet.   Let your mate know that they are a priority to you.

If you don't have a mate and you don't have any children, have a party with yourself.  Shut out the outside world.  Stop answering the phone.   Lay out on your bed and think of how good you have it.  Sure, you may want more than what you have in life right now, but think about your life, your health, your inner happiness.  Breath deeply, notice how nice it is to fill your lungs with air.  Let your mind wander, day dream about what you would do if you could go any where in the world.  What would you wear?  What would you eat?  What would the weather be like?  Just let your mind take you away.  And when you finish, take a long tub bath.  Notice each of your fingers and toes. Let the water wash away your cares, because today is about you.   When you get out of the tub, get dressed.  Leave the house. Spend no money, just window shop, and not for things that would normally buy, but for things that are way out of your price range.  Look for open houses at homes you could never afford.  Browse in stores you never go it.  Smell the perumes and colognes, get samples.  Let you know that you are a priority. 

And when Monday comes and it is back the usual, you will be able to look back on your weekend and know that you spent you time well, and that will make your day so much better, reflecting on not so distant memories.
