Thanks Katrina, I wrote this before I became a mother, AKA no more days off!

I've been daydreaming lately about those days--they were delicious, too! You're right: mom life equals no days off. Fingers crossed I can get some quality time to write this summer.

This sounds like a beautiful, slow day. One that so many of us forget we’re not just allowed to have, but actually need in order to recover and recenter. And honestly, the fact that you wrote two paragraphs at all, good or bad, is an achievement in itself.

I am here for days like these πŸ™Œ
