Rest

Hey friends! Happy Saturday. Or should I say…Caturday?

Anyway, I’m taking it easy this weekend. A couple weeks ago, I worked a 65 hour workweek. The other assistant on my team was out on a well-deserved vacation, but it was still a lot on me. The next week wasn’t nearly as bad–45 hours. I only live about two minutes away from work, but it’s still a challenge for me to get up and out of bed to get to work on time some mornings.

This past week has been much better. Thursday and Friday I actually turned my computer to sleep mode at 5:00. This job has taught me how much I need to take care of myself. I never really did before. I can’t live the way I did before. Things are going to have to change, and one is that I have to rest when I need rest.

This weekend I’ll be reading and listening to music, and that’s it. Well, ok, I’ll throw laundry in the washer and go to a meeting up at church. But other than that, nothing. Nada. I’ll light a candle, make a pot of tea, snuggle down in some blankets on the couch, and escape to another world in whatever book I’m reading right now.

I recognize my posts are short now, but really, I post weekly. I do what I can. And you know what? That’s ok.
