Sitting here completely exhausted after a fun filled trip to DC and Maryland! Feeling grateful to be well enough to have made it through with NO rest days for 6 days straight. Spoonies I know you understand how great that feels!! A few years ago, I never could have made it through without a whole lot of misery. I certainly pushed my limits some this trip but, I COULD, and that is amazing 💜💙
I've got two days to get a massive to do list done without sending my body into a flair, so I can enjoy the trip I'm getting ready for. No problem. 😂
So excited to share a sneak peek of the gorgeous bracelets my bff Mia at Maiden of Miscellany is whipping up for us! <3
Because sometimes I need a reminder. Remember we are not defined by how many dishes we wash or how much work we accomplish. Sometimes living your best life means taking time to take a nap.
I don't remember where I found this but I fixed it so it fits much better. The one size fits all "if you work harder you will reach your dreams" mentality can be pretty defeating if you have chronic illness. Living well with any chronic disease requires a blend of pushing through and resting. Finding that balance can be challenging. I still tip that cart on a regular basis. Learning that it is alright not to push myself beyond my limits, that I actually feel best when I listen to my body, has changed my ability to manage this crazy body better.
Yesterday I was able to enjoy my second hike of the year. A few years ago it seemed like that part of my life might be done. Getting to return to wandering through the woods has been another beautiful milestone on my health journey.
