Keeping track of my life. Catching pieces I might otherwise forget. Putting my memories somewhere safe (in case I lose my mind?).

For me this involves several things: learning something new, creating something useful, and more often than not, giving something away. Plus it’s deliciously relaxing.

Knitting makes me feel like I’m defragging my brain.

Of the grown-up variety. If you’ve never treated yourself… do.

Be it professional for relaxation or sensual from a lover, with hands, oil or hot rocks. Touch is one of my favorite things.

Anything.
Everything.

Curling up in our beautiful, gloriously comfy bed with gratuitous pillows and quilts. Sleeping in. Or… not sleeping. I love our bed. I wish I got to spend more time in it. I will try to make a greater effort.
