wow, it's the first Wednesday of my unemployed life. corporate burnout sounds silly. but i seriously feel strange without a corporate job. i feel this impending need to stay productive. my therapist and wife remind me this is a recovery period.
even so, i have enjoyed getting back into creative projects. my personal website is coming along. there is so much more that comes from launching a blog than i realized. email lists is my current headache. oh, and also the background color not matching on mobile...
how do i get this email to work? at least my initial page is up!
I am happy with my choices.
other things i am enjoying:
walking without feeling the urge to get back inside and check my work email
just watching my dog and how she navigates the world (a shame i hadn't paid more attention to it before)
moving my body more
not rushing during lunch
eating three meals a day
and not spending 8+ hours stuck at a desk
restarting the artist's way
so grateful and privileged to even be in a position where I can quit my job and take time to focus on my mental health.
