A downside to being really good at taking care of yourself and cultivating your own joy is people presuming you don’t need them to offer that to you. They wait to see what you do for you and join in. Meanwhile, the planner always wants to be planned for.
@Blackamazon I eat mustard on fish under these conditions: the fish must be fried and must have bones and served with soft fresh white bread, crystal hot sauce and a lil ketchup. (Formative years: Mobile, AL)
@bettynixx@DennyVonDoom Yup. I literally work out more and prep healthy meals because I can do these things on breaks now. I also dislike rush hour driving. Don't have to deal with that anxiety 5 of 7 days each week now.
I absolutely hate feeling ashy. I need a machine to step into that will lotion me top to bottom and then also rub it in because some days I just don't feel like doing all this.
