I did not take just one day off but took off 8! I know that is crazy. I just needed to regroup and get back in a productive mindset. I had been feeling like I was drowning. I just needed a break.
So what did I do during my time away? I went from room to room at the house purging and organizing. I took 3 1/2 van loads of stuff to donate to a thrift store. I filled the roll out dumpster twice. It felt great and very cathartic. I emptied mind space as well by letting go of stuff. I had purged before I moved here five years ago but somehow things have creeped in!

I did other things as well. Took a friend out to lunch for her birthday, finished reading two Book Club books, planted bulbs in the Botanical Gardens, made three runs to the vet for shots and meds for icky eyes, shopped for crystals (had a blast), handed off a potential commission to another artist (fused work which I do not do well yet), finished loaded 2022 in QuickBooks, watched movies with Fred and his cats. I need to make time for artwork.
What do you like to do on your days off?
