Creating some space for myself...
I work at home. I play at home. I cook at home and eat at home and see clients at home and...well, you get it. Last night I got SUPER claustrophobic and had to get out...I ended up on an adventure (if, by "adventure" we can refer to a leisurely trip to the local Long's Drug Store). I went to just be somewhere else by myself and ended up wandering every aisle see what was what. Found some shampoo and 47 thousand flavors of sugar free gum...but mostly I didn't talk to anyone. I just wandered with my own thoughts.
I love spending time alone. It's nice to go to the gym or walk the dog, but I love that quiet time when I can just read or think my own thoughts. I don't make that space for myself often enough. I need to do that. It helps me feel balanced and calm.
Today I saw clients back-to-back and have a pile of work still ahead. But I may carve out a bit of me-time tomorrow. Me and my 47 thousand flavors of sugar free gum time, that is. ;-)
Peace and joy ~ Shannon
