It has been another week of not sleeping as well as I would like. After work today, instead of gardening, I just rested. I didn't sleep, but I also wasn't very productive. There are a few productive things that I did that are my happy things for today:
- It is cold out today. The high temperature was supposed to be 48 degrees. The air smells cold and it is welcome.
Pretty sure that the tree isn't leaning, it was just a weird angle. |
- I reached in deep and got the energy to do the dishes. In all honesty, I wanted ice cream and needed a spoon, so I washed some silverware and loaded the dishwasher. I think the rest of the dishes will be clean by the time the rest of the family eats dinner.
- Every day there are six things I try to do, including this blog. For November there is one more thing, NaNoWriMo. Once this is posted, all of those things will be done for today. I only typed 106 words for NaNoWriMo, but the total for the week still falls within my goal.
- Self-care is maybe what I did this afternoon. As I prepare for sleep my happy ending is a nice hot rice pack to keep me warm and rest my aching back.

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.
Resting IS being productive. Our bodies can't do all the other things we want to do unless they are well-rested and restored. Here's to self-care! 🥰
