So, it took me a good 2 weeks to “settle my spirit” and get the whole meaning behind a sabbatical. I wasn’t anxious and taking time to just “linger in the moment” without having to rush somewhere came much easier after the first 17 days! My sabbatical was a blast. I volunteered 3-4 days each week, then spent 3-4 days with family and friends. It was a really nice blend. As I come back to work, I hope the following will continue to be a part of my new routine:
- Exercise
- Time with God each morning and afternoon
- Journaling
- Taking time to be with friends
I’m grateful for each day – but especially for the gift given to me by this company the last 30 days. A million thanks to all those that covered in my absence (Lori, Angie, Kelley, Lindsey, Ray, Tina, Terri B, Dawn, …..). I’m grateful for all of you!
