The Mission

Over the last couple of years, my life has sort of spiraled out of control, and the things that are important to me seem to be slipping away. Work, work, work, expectations, expectations, expectations. . .they've crowded me out of myself. While reading Calliope's blog recently, she announced the launch of a project that I just love, and invited others to play along on their own project. I've been thinking and thinking about what my project could be. . .and then it hit me that what I really needed to work on was myself. There are a million things that I need to do to take care of me.

This blog is going to chronicle my effort over the next year to do something for myself every day. By posting it here every day, I hope to ensure that I take care of me. It's not going to be all about massages and aromatherapy (although there will hopefully be some of that, too). . .it's going to be about little things like reading books, and bigger things like making sure I take all of my vacation time.

The journey starts tomorrow.
