#selfcaredays
We live in a world where we are constantly bombarded by pictures and videos of out-of-this-world vacations, fantastic facials, marvelous massages, and sensual spa days. We decide 'this is what I want to experience' and we begin to work harder than we ever have before. We break our backs, we take overtime, we take double- and triple- shifts and start saving towards the 'goal'. We become so encased in obtaining the objective that we get to be like Adam Sandler in the movie Click. The blinders are on, but you miss everything around you. You forget to be in the present and live in the moment.

I was teaching three classes online (with students in different time zones), working on projects with two committees at my university, taking two online classes for faculty development, and volunteering as a mentor for a special program. And because I wanted to be healthier, I decided to start cooking all of my own meals using one of the (in)famous meal delivery options that are now available.
