Today I’m taking a day to pause and celebrate.
I’ve made it halfway through a very demanding (and amazing) stretch of engagements, and I’ve had some incredible business accomplishments come to be, so I scheduled a day of pause and celebrate.
When was the last time you paused, even just a bit, to show up, follow through, and fill yourself up?
When was the last time you celebrated yourself, where you’ve come from, where you are, and connected with the people who have helped along the way?
And just in case you need some ideas of how to pause and celebrate, here are my plans for today:
Puppy cuddles
A walk
Stake up my tomatoes
Plant marigolds and sugar snap peas
Refill milkweed for my monarch caterpillars
Look for new monarch and swallowtail eggs
Check on and take pictures of my wildflowers
Sit in the sun
Read
Go to the library to pick up a few novels
Color
Finish a piece of writing I’m working on
Catch up with my friends in Marco Polo
Show Chad pictures from my trip
Look at properties Chad has found online
A fancy dinner tonight with Chad to relish and dream together
You are worthy of, deserve, and need the pause and celebration; schedule it if you have to.
