It’s been 2 whole weeks since I left my home. 14 nights alone in a bed. Time has flown and time has dragged at the same time but I’m getting my routines in place and in this video I share some things I’ve learned about myself and my needs. Take a little behind the scenes…
Day 13 of my Midlife Sabbatical
I hate being sick and I hate taking medicine but it turns out that getting outside can really lift my mood. Being alone is taking a toll so I took a sneaky trip home to feel some human connection. It didn’t go well and I ended up feeling pretty disappointed. It’s called “the work” for…
Day 12 of My Midlife Sabbatical
Now that I’m so sick, completely grounded and quarantined in my Dungeon, see how my perfect little grey space suddenly went dark? well, I do a little self care that turns into a story time from my past. Who knew I was a natural brunette? Who knew I was a professional hairdresser, many moons ago?…
Day 10 & 11 of My Midlife Sabbatical
After a late wake up and a long day at work, I am crashing. I caught a pretty nasty flu that knocked me out and I realized, if I was at home, I’d be worried about everyone catching it but I’d still be there with company. Being alone when you’re sick is another story…
Day 9 of My Midlife Sabbatical
Today I’m sharing my morning routine. It’s amazing that in just 9 days I have finally left the phone alone. I’m amazed at how quickly I switched that phone addiction and fomo has switched into me wanting to do my “A.M. Boost” as I’m calling it. My first, 30 minutes of my day is spent…
Day 7 & 8 of My Midlife Sabbatical
Not being used to recording my every move, has required me to learn how to add voiceover to pictures. It took so long to figure this out and I’ve realized that living with tech savvy people has left me quite uneducated in this department. So much of my home life is digitized and automated and…
Day 5 & 6 of My Midlife Sabbatical
As I got busy with my daily plans, I needed to start learning how to get some content out to share. I decided this was a unique enough experience that I’d try to document and share it but my skills were so non existent that I didn’t even know which direction to hold my camera….
Day 4 of My Midlife Sabbatical
Day 4 was full of intense focus work. I came up with my early plan for daily practices which includes, no phone, gratitude, planning and angel guidance. I listed all the things of my past that I felt had led me off track with myself I realized I don’t like to stand out or draw…
Day 3 of my Midlife Sabbatical
Well I started Day 3 of my Midlife Sabbatical all “excited” and yes I use that word too much but since that’s my current feeling, I’m going with it as I haven’t felt that way in a while. My plans ended abruptly with a Migraine but my day was filled with thoughts of my future…
Day 2 of My Midlife Sabatical
I just watched a little documentary on Greta Thunberg and she wisely said: “the first step is the hardest but once you’ve taken it, the second is easier, then you have movement” so here I am in a forward movement, however slow it may be. Day 2. It’s my first full day where I have…
