No. Do I want a mecation? Desperately. Do I deserve one? Without a doubt, that’s an emphatic yes! Time alone, my own space, my own thoughts, and all of it uninterrupted by obligatory responsibilities! I take a 5 day mecation every year.

Of course it’s brilliant to recognize the need AND do something about it! I am so proud (read jealous) of you!

No way, Patricia. SVR stuff is nothing (stress-wise), at least for me. I know that hasn’t been the case for you this past year. Hopefully far less stress for you in your new role!

I’m sure I’ve been partly to blame for your stress (as you know the SVR crap just keeps a comin’).

I hope you can get totally relaxed and energized. And, if it does turn out to be hormones, they have stuff to help with that too. I just say to my husband, “Yes, it is hormones now shut up or die.” That usually works.

Hang in there my friend. I’ll be putting way less stress on you from now on. I can’t help with the other stuff though. Your’e on your own with that.

You’re making me tired just reading the long list of TO DO items, Yvonne. You’re an over-achiever after my own heart. A little solitude is a necessity to regroup and quiet the mind. I’m glad you’re trying to have even a few minutes each day. I think that’s part of why the stress has gotten the better of me these past few months–I stopped doing the things I need to do for me. I can’t wait to see pics of the new kitchen, etc, when it’s all done! Hugs.

I’m sorry you’re feeling stressed, Cathy. You should definitely plan a MEcation! I can’t wait for mine…only a few more days.

Two months of having the house (and office) torn up for remodeling, plus book deadlines, plus a promotional campaign, and I’m ready to lock myself in a closet and suck my thumb! I’ve been trying to have ME-time every day – just a few minutes of solitude to empty my mind of must-do’s and the caterwauling of questions to refresh and rejuvenate. Some days it works – and others, not so much! It sounds like you’re on the other side of the mountain top now, so enjoy the glide back to sanity!
Hugs – Yvonne

Woke up stressed this morning about everything I have to do and wondering how I could get through it all. Sure could use a Me-cation!
