Quotes and Coffee

I tried a Cafe Miel yesterday for the second time. This delectable treat is a latte with honey and cinnamon. The first time I had one the barista made one by accident and gave it to me because she knew I was a latte lover. One sip and I was sold! At this particular cafe they serve it in a smaller cup size than my first experience but it was just as pleasant. At first I thought, "What's with the baby cup?!" But after taking the first sip I realized that my greedy eyes do me no justice and the size was perfect. Usually I am the type who will get the same drink...same dish every time I go somewhere but I am in to trying new things lately. Which is exciting because it's like everything is a mini surprise! I enjoyed this new experience during a break I took yesterday afternoon. I was emphatically reminded by my sister that I NEED to take breaks and time for myself. I'm the biggest advocate of R&R but sometimes it's me who needs to take my own advice. As she pleaded with me last night to partake in a family vacation, I thought, "Am I one of those people who don't know how to take a vacation?" My co-worker would testify to the fact that I never use all my vacation time which ultimately leads to burnout. But I always seem to find a reason to work. Which isn't something I say proudly because rest is as much a part of life as working. And when I get to the point where I feel like my eyeballs are oozing out of my head because of all the time I have been staring ay my laptop clearly something is out of balance. Although I have a ways to go I have to give myself credit for being better than I used to be in terms of staying balanced.

The snowflakes are falling along with the tempurature. Too bad Swiss Miss upsets my stomach otherwise I would be stirring it up right now!

I'll end with a couple good quotes I came across yesterday while waiting in line for my Cafe Miel...

"I Never Have a Boring Day"..."I Require More"...two quotes I can relate to...well said!
