Weekend:
The Hold Steady, beer in the afternoon, bounce castles, My Boys, books in bed, dinners with friends, hiking.
And in-between? Cleaning the entire house, laundry, dishes, a gym visit, freelance, up early on a Sunday.
I am learning that the key to working, happily, is a steady supply of things to look forward to. Although I do need time to myself, I think the greater challenge for me, right now, is to schedule fun things in. To force myself to pick up that phone, even when it feels scary.
This week’s commitment: at least one social thing during the week, and one on the weekend. Running or yoga or gym at least twice.
Goal for the workweek: complete cleaning tasks in the evening. Visit my garden. Read.
