Self-Care Wednesday

Today was a good day for a little self care. 

I picked up a friend this morning and we talked non-stop all the way to writing group. 

There we met two others who are working on writing projects of their own. We flipped through a great new ethnic cookbook, and heard about an idea for a children's book, and for a book on grand-parenting. There was some light-hearted writing that brought laughter into the room, and a poem which got us talking about stages of life. We read for each other and offered encouragement and suggestions. We discussed blogging, and blogging platforms, and fiction, and writing disciplines.

Then I drove my friend back home and we sat for an hour in her driveway, still talking and supporting each other.

Home for a lunch of farm fresh egg sandwiches,

 a good nap, 

and some time to process life with Chuck. 

A walk with the dog at sunset, 

and now either soup and bread for supper, 

or we might go out for some comfort food.
