My friend Sandy tagged me... now I need to write 5 things I do to stay mentally healthy. So here goes:
- I blog... it's my form of journaling. I don't feel balanced if I don't blog every week day. I have also started doing 'wordless weekends' to put photos up. I process a lot of my thoughts while blogging.
- I try to get alone time every day. I deal with the public at work all day long. It drains me. I try to have time by myself every day. Sometimes I go for a drive, sometimes a walk, sometimes just a long bubble bath.
- I create every day. Many times lately, I create in the form of photography. I always have my camera with me, and I snap away most every time that I'm inspired.
- I get plenty of rest. If I don't get enough sleep, I act like a 2 year old who needs a nap. So, if I had not gotten enough sleep the night before, I'll take a nap after work. It works for me.
- I try to make contact with loved ones, though this doesn't happen every single day. When I go too long without contact, I feel very 'off'.
Those are my five. If you are reading this, consider yourself tagged :-). I just don't feel comfortable tagging specific people this close to the holidays. But if you post your five, please leave me a comment and let me know!

"Hello Robyn," Eleanor says. "I told my Biographer he'd been tagged, since I read your post, and now he's HIDING behind some words. But we both want to wish you a VERY HAPPY and MERRY holiday. And we envy the snow you're getting. Please take good care of yourself, and keep dreaming big dreams, and keep making them happen, step by step. We need you. We need your words. We need your images. We need you inspiration!"
Love getting to know you Robyn. Great list!
~Very Merry~
