With the change in seasons (from sunny summer to blustery fall) may come the change in your caregiving role. What seemed to be effortless during the warm, bright days of summer (doctors appointments, for instance) now seem to be full of effort as you and your care recipient bundle up to fight the cold.
Yuck.
Think of the arrival of our new season as an opportunity to hibernate (or an excuse not to rush, rush, rush), to honker down in front of the television, or to read a good book, or to watch a favorite DVD. With this change of season, take advantage of the time you have inside. Scale back on activities; rest. You deserve it.
