This was such a timely read. I’ve been trying to keep up with writing while managing a toddler, two dogs, and the beautiful chaos that comes with both — and honestly, it’s been a lot. I didn’t have a looming deadline, but I had the same exact feeling: something had to give. And I chose to write anyway. Not because I had to, but because I needed to. But I felt every word you said about the tradeoffs. Thank you for reminding me that rest and return can coexist.
I'm so glad it resonated with you, and I'm so glad that writing was what you felt you needed to do :) I hope letting some other things go gave you a bit of peace.

That gin spritz looks right up my alley!
Let me know if you make it!
