I realized this week that work never seems to end if the laptop is open. A little meditation, a little yoga, and two fairy cards later (with titles of "Kick Up Your Heels" and "Peace of Mind,") led me to the following conclusion:

I need to get off the grid.

It's time for both renewing my spirit (with nothing to do with work and everything to do with joyful adventure) and resting my mind (the kind of stillness that allows for two-hour naps in the afternoon.) I'm giving myself permission (this happens when you are the boss) to shut down the email, stay off Twitter, and close up shop for the holidays.

I'll see you after the New Year. Until then, be well.
