...a "me" day? A "me" day is a day that you choose to isolate yourself from the needs and news and wants of other people. It is a day that you choose as yours...a day that will be spent recuperating and licking the wounds that life has inflicted upon you. It is a holiday of sorts...a "staycation".
How you spend a "me" day is your choice. You can wile away the day lying in bed with a good book. You can sit in front of the computer screen or television. You can choose to answer the phone...or not. You can paint...or knit...or garden...or not.
A "me" day is not governed by other people's expectations.

ReplyDeleteWell, you just nurtured your soul and I hope it is good.
ReplyDeleteI like days when I'm by myself. It seems weird when you don't talk or hear anybody talk all day!
