Take some time out, take a snap shot, and send us a post card!

As a carer, time out is important. But now that it's winter time and it's cold and grey, I find that I'm tempted to just stay inside. To me, this makes it even more important to make an effort to get out and about. For some people, they can recharge by staying indoors, but for me, getting out into the fresh air means a lot to my well-being.

So this thread is about making sure we take some time out and sharing this experience with others. We often enjoy getting a post card from our friends who are on holidays. It can make us feel like we're on holidays too.

So take some time out, have a mini break or a long break! And then post photos, pictures, and/or comments on where you went. 

Send us a post card!

(Just make sure any photos are non-identifiable and anonymous)

Here's my post card...

I went away camping over the weekend, it was a cold night but then I woke up to this:

Last week I took time off and went to a restaurant in High Street, northcote with two of my grandsons. Here they are, hand in hand, walking in front of me. We had a great Thai meal. I loved it.

This is my postcard 🙂

It's a gift from a colleague after I joked I wanted a tacky souvenir. While this technically doesn't represent me taking some time out... it is something I look at when I need a mini vacation... in my mind... while working 🙂

This photo was taken on my way back from picking up fish and chips. I was treated to something beautiful on my weekend trip away from suburbia.
