Taking Myself Out for the Day!

Sometimes you just need to be the one who does something nice for yourself.

With the exception of necessary shopping and appointments that I find unpleasant, it's been over 5 years since I went anywhere on my own. I'm out of practice. And I'm in need of time away for a day.

I have a couple of those unpleasant appointments coming up in the next few weeks. I need to forget those exist for a few hours. So I'm escaping.

There's a farm area not too far away. I am told one farm has small farm animals as well as a nice little store. I may try to find that farm. I may also go to the vintage district (which is close to the farm area) for a couple of hours. 

So, I've got to get myself to bed early, so I can get up early, get breakfast made and dishes washed up before heading out.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

  3. Such a fantastic idea. I'm a home school mom to 5 children and also a caretaker for my husband with Parkinson's and sometimes I budget in the gas money and I just go to the pet store or the greenhouse nearby and walk the aisles of plants or animals! I am never alone. I mean NEVER alone so doing that just makes all the difference to have some moments to reset and not think and literally just have fun. Bravo to you for doing this! I am excited to hear of your adventures!
