I'm 7 days into a 21-day workweek right now. this winter hasn't been super busy, but we're really understaffed now that lockdowns have lifted some, and the work is nonstop. I've never been good at not burning out... and I can feel myself getting to that point. The unfortunate thing is that my work ethic doesn't take much of a hit, but my abilities to focus on small tasks, express myself creatively, and even feel comfortable in my own skin do. 

This whole winter has felt so exhausting, from a lack of social time, to my packed work schedule, to feeling creatively stuck. I need to reset, or recharge, but I honestly don't know what to do. I'm still on the fence about an April hiatus- I'll let you know if I decide to do that. 

In the next few days, I'm planning on breaking out the cross country skis and going for an adventure after work, since it's light out until 7pm now. And next week, when the weather is forecast to get hot, I'm hoping to get out for a photoshoot or two while I can.
