This week's prompt from Sally at The Studio Sublime was to take time for ourselves. In the busyness of taking care of everyone and everything, we tend to not take time to do something just for us. To recharge, regroup, or just relax and do something we truly enjoy.
Since I left my job at the gift shop three and a half years ago, I find that I have more time than I know what to do with. Of course it wasn't always this way. When the kids were growing up, my night owl tendency was used for that time to do something just for me.
This week was an extremely busy, exhausting week and I missed my daily cup of tea. Usually, I just make a mug of tea, saving the china teacups and teapots for tea parties.
When I finally had some free time one afternoon, I decided to make a small pot of tea and have a tea party just for me. Candlelight, flowers (albeit silk), china and cinnamon tea. Soothing, relaxing, and just what I needed.

How do you take time?
