Still paying! You haven’t let me down. The vacation/moving the chair.....I had to show my husband. We are retired teachers and have run a small sheep ranch throughout our 45 yr marriage. As a young bride, I once asked if we could just do something fun for a change instead of ranch chores in our not-school time? Wanting to show some compassion for his new wife, he went back in the house and brought out a radio so we could have music while we toiled. He changed the angle of our chairs! My man has little to no anxiety, so I make sure to add to mine to stay balanced. You, my new friend, are brilliant.

This is just great! Will come back here often. I like the “why haven’t I done this sooner” one. Reminds me of a “I’m just here for the savasana” t-shirt I used to have:)

I feel you man!!

Enjoyed the product of your worries

Though my guess is those are just your brain pace, very active, with a tired body, not very nice influences.

Well life helps a bit as well, lol

I’m not even a parent, yet I laughed at the spider mom. Excellent piece, sir--take care.

Reading this was self-care.

Although “self-care” sound too much like “self-help” for me. Which seems like self-evident self-improvement. Do I want to be so self-aware? Maybe I’m in self-denial. Should I be more self-reliant? And show some self-love? It’s all so selfish!

"I’d scream into the void if I could afford one ..."

This made me smile, which is self-care! Smiling through the tragicomedy of life.
