Cap'n' Hooky

I called in sick this morning.

In the sense that sickness can be defined as a general state of not being whole, then my conscience is clear.

Right now, with the benefit of a decent amount of sleep, a shower and a quiet morning working on the church website with Fellow Traveler, it's as if every cell of my body and brain is murmuring, Thank you...thank you...thank you...

This afternoon I am doing some housecleaning and helping FT make blueberry jam.

Some days I feel as if my paying job is killing me by inches. Today I'm grabbing ahold of the rope and yanking some of that accumulated yardage back.

GOOD for you. Take the yardage and run.

Good. Repeat as needed.

It's also called a "mental health day." I have to have one now and then, too. I rest, crochet, take myself out for lunch, and think how I would like to never return to my job. Enjoy!
