Yesterday, for the first time in one year, I could not post my weekly letter to you on Friday, and I felt miserable. It had been a crazy day. Between cooking, cleaning, washing, shopping, and gift wrapping, I had no time left.
After dinner, I lamented to my daughter, “I haven’t sent my newsletter today, and I feel miserable.” Even though I was having a wonderful day with my family, I was thinking about a deadline that no one else but I had set for myself.
“Surely, you can take time off at this time of the year,” said my daughter. She was right. But I needed her to say that to me, like a permission note.
So in case you too need a note, here is one from me.
Have a fantastic Christmas and holiday break!

Merry Xmas Neera! A big hug! Because I had no time too to write a proper newsletter for yesterday (but I also made a nice drawing with a reindeer!!), I decided to try for the first time a thread. Only one reader answered! I think everyone was too busy yesterday to read emails! 😅 so that’s ok!
Thanks Neera. Thanks for this reminder
