God is the madwoman in the attic.
I'm camped out on the threshold with my journal, camera, and plenty of snacks.

the six

There are six things that I try to do every day now that Baby N has gotten a little bigger.

1) brush my teeth
2) take a shower
3) take my vitamin
4) do some yoga
5) read a book
6) go for a walk

They don't all get done every day, but keeping them in mind means that they each get done most days. It means that self-care continues. I'm realizing how important that is when I'm providing care to someone else, Baby N, all day long. It also means that I remember and continue to practice the things that I'm interested in and care about. I remember me.
