52Nudges

April 7, 2022

52+: the Great Pause of 2022

So…my appendix ruptured. I am now home, having spent several days in hospital being treated for the resulting infections. I’m fine. I’ll be fine.

I’m also clearing my schedule.

For a few moments, I considered running past Nudges or doing some cute little TLC Nudges, but that’s not what I need. Radical Self-Care (and reality) demands that right now I put me first in every way.

I’ll be back. I’m not sure when, maybe in a few weeks. In the meantime, you might continue to do Nudges from your own list, review some oldies and re-challenge yourself, or take time to consider and do what you really need for you right now.

It’s a new day, it’s a new dawn, and I’m feeling grateful to be alive. xoKath

P.S. Some of you will want to reach out, and I appreciate this. Instead of having to open and respond to lots of messages, something I don’t have the energy for, I ask that you send your good wishes to me in your thoughts and prayers and save the emails and texts for later.
