Playing in the Dirt  

September 2023

Be Still

No one called me out on it, but I didn't send out a Playing in the Dirt last month. In August the to-do list just seemed to keep getting longer & longer no matter how many things I marked off. Odds are it happens to you too - try to give yourself some grace when it does. It is OK to take a few things off of your list all together. Enjoy a sunset. Watch a butterfly. Read a book. Sometimes, the best thing we can do, is less.
