\par 
\par Stretching out some empty spaces for yourself.  Even when a spa weekend/trip to the slopes is out of the question.  Try some of these: 
\par 
\par Making oatmeal the old, slow way.  Watching thick bubbles rising in the pot, belching as they burst. 
\par 
\par Washing the windshield inside and out.  Wiping off the grime, watching shining glass come blooming out of the haze.
\par 
\par Placing your hand over your heart.  Feeling your beat.
\par 
\par Looking for your favorite color.  Everywhere you go.
\par 
\par Dancing steps from high school.  With company or without.
\par Turning the garden with a spade.  The scent of earth rising with each shovelful. Tickling you with ideas of what you'll plant. 
\par  
\par Sitting outside and waiting for the moon to rise.  With company or without.
\par 
\par Scrubbing a floor with a bucket and a brush.  The scent of soap rising from the wash water, the swishing of bristles being pushed across the floor.
\par 
\par Taking a tour through your CD stack.  Picking just one.  Listening with the lights off. 
\par 
\par Red sucker, orange sucker, giving each a lick. Yellow sucker, green sucker?  
\par 
\par Shuffling down the street, taking a trip to nowhere.  Feeling the wind, watching for what might blow by.
\par 
\par Leafing through a magazine, counting the smiles.
\par 
\par Folding paper into airplanes.  Flying them out the window.  Finding where they land.
\par 
\par Spreading your fingers, combing them through your hair, pressing deep into your scalp.
\par 
\par Humming the oldest tune you know.
\par 
\par Reading a poem/bedtime story out loud.  With company or without.
\par 
\par Popping popcorn on the stove, breathing in popcorn aroma. Dishing some up while it's still hot. Wolfing down a handful.  Listening for the crunch.
\par 
\par Putting new laces on old shoes.
\par 
\par }{\i And remember--I'm behind you all the way.
