I’ve been encouraged to take some time off. Although I am very reluctant to stray from my routine, I do recognize the need for a break. I’m not a traveler, so I’ll be staying home. However, I do want to get out of the house some. I hate driving though, so I won’t be going further than a 45 minute drive in any direction. I’m just putting this here to help me start brainstorming possible ideas…

Long baths (like 2 or more hours!), long walks, live like you would live if you didnt have to work.

spicy books
fancy creative breakfasts for every meal for a day
making a funk playlist and jamming (better in your underwear)
getting some stuff from a craft store and starting a project (maybe even finishing it?)
parks, ponds, local trails, whateva you got in the area
hang out at a coffee shop, even if it's like Dunks or whatever your area's equivalent is, and treat yourself to something outside your norm you'd probably like
spend a day or five in your jammies
shred a branch and sniff the insides

I did it. I requested the 2nd week in July off. I will find out Monday if it’s a go. Thank you for the great suggestions unaluna and Muddy Boots! I will definitely be taking long walks and working on creative projects.
