I have several blog posts in progress. Each week it seems something else comes up and they get pushed aside. That is happening again this week.
Self care has been especially important and especially hard for the past week. I am seeking out ways to reach out to those who are afraid because of the election outcomes. I recognize that misogyny is one of the values embraced by our president elect, and therefore my own safety is at risk.

I am exhausted. I forgot I am in charge of a meeting this evening. I am not getting my required 10 hours of sleep a night (yes I really need that much sleep) and I have huge black bags under my eyes. My thought for the day said this:

As a 2 on the enneagram, I feel loved by feeling needed. I tend to sign up for too many activities, always saying yes when asked to help (especially if it means spending time with my grandkids). I am sure being an extrovert only makes the problem worse.
This blog is my attempt to pay attention to my need for self care- especially as the holidays are approaching.
Thank you for listening.
