Hello World!
It has been a minute since I’ve written a blog post - & that’s okay! I gave myself permission to take a break. Life has been very, very full - to say the least! During this past year,
I navigated an unexpected & extra challenging move (which turned out to be a blessing!)
Landed a side gig (twice!) to help pay the bills while slowly/spaciously growing my biz (a story in & of itself!)
Helped support a loved one through a painful divorce - a nightmare, actually - (definitely an eye-opener on multiple levels)
Lost a beloved kitty cat/BFF who peacefully crossed the Rainbow Bridge - in my presence & in our new living room; rest in peace, sweet Sally Meow
All the while, I tried my absolute best to take care of myself. Like many (all?) HSPs, I require more sleep & down time than other folks. Quality sleep is medicine for me; I really can’t do without it whilst continuing to THRIVE! I also need plenty of quiet time to ponder, daydream, write/journal, think & simply BE. (I’ve been teased throughout my life - mostly, but not always, in a good natured fashion - about the amount of sleep I require & how highly I prioritize sleep. You know what? No excuses. No shame. It’s what I need, & that is that. #Self-Care)
