WE need to unwind it does not matter our age.
I find as we move through phases of our life we are as busy as ever, if we want to be. If you take an interest in things you will naturally be busy with something.
Now enjoy your retreat and that courgette or zucchini as you guys says got me jealous. I miss not having a garden as they were the easiest and first thing I ever grew!
Zucchini has a way of making anyone feel like a successful gardener! I purposely picked most of mine while they were small, because they taste better and aren't as seedy. But a few always manage to hide in the leaves and turn into baseball bats.
