Writing Challenge Day #17- How I Unwind

from a wild flower, writing challenge

It’s ironic that I’m writing this post about unwinding while trying to do so. I recently started a job writing from home, and I’m still in the process of figuring out the best schedule for J and I.

How I unwind used to be simple. Laying out on the beach. Glass of Moscato. Pedi once a week and massage once a month. Going ham on the elliptical at the gym or going for a walk. Laying on my bed with something awesome playing on the track.

But times have changed.

Unwinding now consists of taking a hot shower. Deep conditioning my hair. Begging for back rubs. Sleeping in past 8am. Mom stuff. I’m working on making more of an effort to take time for myself, but its def hard. Especially with my friends and family being over 3 hours away. No girl time takes its toll.

*Insert revelation.*

I need time with my boos. To lay on the beach, drink a glass of moscato, indulge in a pedi and massage. Let’s skip the ellip this time though. Hookah? Chai tea. Yep, that sounds like a plan.
