Yesterday afternoon, I received a package of chocolates from a friend. It just reminded me to take a break from work and indulge. I used to snack on chocolates at my previous offices 🙂
These days, it’s hard to separate myself from the Internet where money flows like mad cows. But that day, I said to myself, STOP and enjoy a few minutes with my family.
Because Ashton was still taking a nap, I opened a bar (or two) of the Dove Chocolates my friend sent over. It came in a medium paper bag too and inside were actually five bars. Shared it with my husband while sneaking in some work.
It was a breather to be able to talk about something else other than work, we talked about how the bar of chocolate tasted creamy and sweet. We tried the Milk Chocolate first 🙂
Maybe we got a bit noisy that Ashton woke up and I decided to give him a round of mommy kisses and tickles!
Then I realized, my “me time” has quietly evolved into family time. It’s them whom I want to spend most of my free time with especially when during busy days, free time is quiet scarce. I love my new me time!
Amazing how something as simple as chocolates can make a difference in your day.
How do you spend your me time?
