Day 2- Treat yourself

Surgery behind me, my care coach aka boyfriend having a day with nothing to do but hang with me...we plan to have continuous small treats today!

It's also my sister Jackie's birthday and I'm hoping she is treating herself well. She definitely knows how. A lot of people and a dog need her so if she's reading this, she best be Birthday Princess!

We come from a family of give until it hurts personalities.

We need this day more than ever

Journal Activity:

*Free write all the ways you can treat yourself (well!!!) today. Go nuts! Fill a page or two. To fantasy town.

*Pick one thing and write a page of details how you can make that thing happen today! Not tomorrow. Tomorrow's theme is something else😊

*Do that thing.

*Pick up your journal before bed tonight and write about how that felt. All the feels, guys.

Art Activity:

Got and artsy craftsy thing you've been putting off?

I have luscious yarn that I'm going to crochet a simple square wash cloth for myself. For when I can get in the tub later.

I also have some magazines I've saved to add to my "girls just want to have fun suitcase". Bunch of my favorite girls all represented in photographs and glued to an old non porous suitcase. I've added a big picture of Cindi Lauper in full 80's costume cut out of the cover of the Rolling Stone. It makes me super happy to have this work in progress. It's I'm my studio so I'll have to show you later. There's a close to my heart story in there too.

Send me your purely for fun project ideas and finished stuff! I'll make you a guest writer! I might need you this week.

Pain management isn't as fun as making cupcakes or painting a silly banner.

Medicine

*Get outside and go for a walk. And scavenge

Take a bag or better..a fanny pack so your hands are free! Fill it up with things to sew on the ground, growing out of the ground, etc.

Use that wild imagination. Save what you find for a jam coming up soon.

I hope treat day is as awesome as you need it to be. I don't like using the word deserve but what the hell? Just this is once

You deserve continuous small and big treats?
