Bookended

My day began and ended with a book in bed. Granted, that’s no different from every other day of the year, but weekends mean unhurried reading and less glancing at the clock.

The unhurried theme continued with a lazy breakfast, an indulgent home facial and a slow walk to a cafe for a fish finger sandwich.

There was a general promise of a less hurried world when we were all forced to take a break in Spring 2020. This January feels, for the first time in a while, like I’m back to pre-pandemic pace. I’m grateful for this, in many ways, but do need to re-visit some of those lessons learned about rhythms and rest.
