Patriotic Celebration of Memorial Day ~ Friday @ 5:00

Let's Chalk One Up for our Country. This Memorial Day weekend you will probably see family or friends with kids – or have more time than usual with your own. To recognize the holiday and make a fun memory, grab a bucket of sidewalk chalk and a kid (or 3) and draw your own themed mural. Here are some ideas to get you started:

• A soldier

• A Flag
• The Liberty Bell
• An American Eagle
• Uncle Sam
• A president (see the head-side of a coin)
  
  

Be sure to take a photo in case the rain washes it away soon.

And, write here or send photos to me of what you did so I can post them for all our readers (and they can use the idea for July 4^th!).

R & R (rest & rejuvenation) are the intentions behind the Friday at 5:00 entries. Often these are inexpensive and low key because you recharging your batteries can be more easily achieved without running around and doing, doing, doing. Your productivity is rooted in your energy being high. Your energy being high is rooted in recreation!

I bet I can think of a mural idea involving a heavily armed soldier and a certain president ;)

A lot of people who read fifty productivity blogs every day are doing it because they want to cram more work into their time, rather than make more time for other things. I think it's important they remember they can't work effectively without living a balanced life.
