Self-Care 

I saw a really good quote about self-care this week. It's not always about getting a massage or throwing a bath bomb in the tub and soaking for hours. Sometimes it's about taking legitimately hard steps to make it so that your life situation is markedly better.

Going to the dentist is self-care. Having an uncomfortable conversation so that it stops constantly bothering you is self-care too. And in my case, pushing and working on a work project on my day off is also a part of self-care.

Self-Care 

This is leaving me feeling really drained and a little frustrated and tired, but it'll be worth it to cross this crap off of my list and put this project to bed.
