This week, I was decompressing from the spring semester. I'm finally snapping out of it and have had the grace to let my body do its thing. Though that was hard to accept. Hang in there, Jenn!
Such a relatable message! We’ve all been here. Some weeks go according to “plan” whereas other weeks make plans for us. It’s all part of the rollercoaster of life!
I understand this totally. I have a book I need to finish editing, queries to send, and articles to do. Instead I’ve been spending time with my mom who has recently gone to the nursing home. Next week maybe. This week I have a place I need to be.
Spending time with mom is so important. I went through a long stretch of cardiac rehab/nursing home with my mom years ago, and nothing was more important than the time spent with her there. All the writing will wait for you when its time.
Totally get this! When I’m in the trenches like that I default to my ‘done diary’. A list of things every day I DID get done so I focus on the positives instead of all the things I didn’t do.

Thanks for this! I have been exhausted all week and I believe it is related to the difficult/ugly news around me.
My tender heart, and love for all, struggles when hate prevails. The only thing that has worked of late is outreach to others and longer park walks.

I feel so seen by this. Thank you!
You filled orders, which was keeping promises to other people ~ +100 points! Don't worry, Jenn, we are all still here!
I'll take it - thank you! :)
