practice extreme self-care

After my tumble from the bike I took the bike in for a tune up and got its shifters realigned.

Me, my shoulder and neck are still quite sore. So, I signed up for a massage with a friend of mine who specializes in sports-related injuries.

After all, my body deserves as much of a realignment as the bike does, right?

There are a hundred post-auction activities I need to do in the office, and I’m feeling guilty, but this is the plan:

• Loaf a little more this morning
• Pedicure and have my eyebrows waxed
• Lunch at home
• Afternoon bike ride – weather report says that the rain should stop – well, with occasional showers, but I can deal.

Today, I was supposed to do very little other than rest.

I did 2.5 hours of housework, then I went in to work for 5.5 hours.

Not exactly extreme self-care.

_{I should go to work, but I can’t bring myself to do so. I didn’t have a day off today, and I’ve been working so many stressful hours…}

Tomorrow, the plan:

sleep in just until it’s time to take Emma to jazz band
clean house
get a pedicure
loaf

_{even that sounds like too much.}

Blown up in a week!

don’t know what to do.

It feels necessary these days.
