Self-care isn't selfish

Man, what a crazy weekend it has been. I went through a pretty traumatic experience with my pup, fearing of her life and safety. I'm not going to get into that now since I haven't had the time to really process everything. There were so many tense moments and a rollercoaster of emotions happening all at once. But she is alive and recovering and that's all I could really hope for.

I'm writing this post because I'm just now getting an opportunity to stop and take time for myself. In as much as I know I needed to be strong for her and all parties involved, I realized that I haven't done much to take care of what I needed outside of work and projects. It might be as small as taking a long hot shower to wash the stress away, giving myself a pedicure and brushing my hair. But hey, we do what we can to get better - whatever that means at the moment.

I hope the weekend was well for you, cheers to a new day/week ahead and don't forget to take time show yourself the love you deserve.
