Unplugging is important

"Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you." ~ Anne Lamott

I love this quote. What a great reminder that we all need to unplug. Derek and I made a trip to Nanaimo recently. We have made an offer on a condo and we needed to meet with some tradespeople to make arrangements for renovations to be done before we move in. To say it was a whirlwind of a trip is a gross understatement. We were exhausted after a day of meetings, shopping, and decision-making. Oh, the decision-making. I didn't truly understand the term 'decision fatigue' before now.

We both hit the proverbial wall at about 5pm but we weren't booked on to the return ferry until after 8pm. We talked about trying to change our reservation to an earlier sailing, but then we decided to take some time for ourselves. We had a beautiful walk at Pipers Lagoon Park and then we had a delicious dinner at a local brew pub.

This was a great reminder that sometimes we just need to stop and unplug for a while. We were both working much better after we unplugged for a few minutes. There is so much going on in the world, I hope you are taking time to recharge.

Peace and many blessings,

Amanda
