Colin sits on my lap from time to time, but I don't know that he's ever curled up and fallen asleep in my lap like this before.

Help, Colin is hiding from me, and I can't find him 😭

Colin demands that you allow yourself to rest.

We're unapologetically taking up space.

Colin knows even the smallest bit of reaching out can turn around someone's day 💜

I WILL be the center of attention.
I WILL command a room with my presence.
I WILL be a gd problem for you.

And you WILL love it.

Sunday nights.

Rest feels like a blink. Truly recharging is a fairy tale.

We try the next closest thing. An activity we love. The ones we love. The world we fight for. As we all join this work, we'll take our turns to truly rest, knowing things are in good hands while we're gone.

For now, JFC.

Colin is here to support you through that 10-minute task you've been putting off for months.

Updates from home, the place I forever want to be.

Maybe if I sit here looking very cute, they'll watch me instead of the TV.

Back to this Maintenance Phase episode today. Workplace wellness challenges tend to be pretty ableist among other things, and just out of their lane. Usually our work is not our doctors. AND they deny the systemic issues of providing better wages, PTO, and better healthcare overall as true wellness.

book 23 for '25. Don't limit yourself to what seems like a book-enough book to you. They all count: kids' books, audiobooks, poetry, graphic novels, etc etc. Reading is the point. Find what engages you.

Same goes with any habit you want to keep; doing things you actually like will keep you going.

Colin sez: Support your local booksellers and libraries as often as possible. Go see local bands, artists, and theatre. Buy merch from them as directly as you can. Buy gift cards and use them whenever you're ready. Eat at local restaurants, shop for food as close to home and in-season as you can.
