Self Care 3/26

[cam]

Sorry I've been MIA. It's been a lot. Anyway...



How has self care been going?

Challenge: Spend at least 5 minutes each day on you.

Big fat FAIL.

I did get out to dinner with friends Saturday and I got a long walk in yesterday. Otherwise? nada.

My 5+ minutes? DH and I do the NYT crossword. I can generally do Sun-Thursday and print from the archives other days.

I normally fail at this miserably, and since DH's eye injury, I have definitely been more burdened with housework etc, but I have been having dinner out with a friend whose daughter also goes to school with DD, and we try to choose places that allow the girls some freedom of movement which allows us to relax a bit. It's especially nice now that the weather is turning nicer and we can eat outdoors some evenings. Also, on Friday I took 1/2 day off and went to see "Game Night" by myself. It was just what I needed! It was hilarious, but that mindless kind of silly funny that lets me just let go and laugh. Laughter really is good medicine.

Self care could be a lot better. I haven't been getting things done and it's causing stress. I have a couple days off that I'm going to try to balance family stuff with getting things done on my to-do right now list or at least prioritizing things and making a plan.
