Sweet Relaxation

How to really relax:

1. Bid a fond farewell to the wife and kids (they're off to Maine for a few).

2. Hike 1 hour through the woods at a fast pace (it was getting dark, so we had to hustle).

3. Arrive back at your buddy's house and husk some corn and stretch those leg muscles!

4. Eat a nice dinner of grilled marinated chicken, fresh veggies, and guacamole with extra garlic. This guy's a bachelor and can cook like 'mr. food'!

5. Enjoy a nice beer (Paper City's "Summertime Pale Ale").

6. Play some music. Me on congas, Peter on keyboards and Joe on cajon.

7. Presto; I'm very relaxed!

I recently purchased a mountain bike (used from craigslist.com). My wife and I will go riding in the evenings around the neighborhood for about an hour. I get the fun of pulling my son in a baby trailer, he's like an anchor. The trip is around 10 miles, after we're done I feel much better about the day. Its a great way to let the stress of the day go.

A slurpee from the Mrs. does wonders for my excess stress......

I need to follow this advice myself. Been very busy lately with Holidays and all. Busy car wash and detail shop. I guess there's worse things, but man I need a day off!!!
