A few days of self-indulgence about to begin. Day at a water park, two nights at a hotel. Breakfast buffet. Probably a nice dinner, maybe two, one with craft beer. A winery if nearby. Taking my laptop to do some neglected writing. Setting aside every household chore, from tidying rooms to tending plants, though I could plan the spring's vegetable and herb gardens. Leave the financial reviews until I return. Leave the library book safely next to my bed at home. Take my cell phone. Take my medicines. I think I'll take drawing pencils though not likely to use them. Harmonica stays home.
There's a balance between a few days idle and a few days looking to reset. I'm achy, but don't want to take any NSAID right now. I'm moody. Sometimes new scenery and experiences improve that. Start with a refreshing shower at home, then final addition of contents to duffle bag, then off to WaWa for gas and coffee, then Shop-Rite for maybe a donut, or maybe just the coffee. Then about two hours of quiet car time. A small but welcome break.
