What I have been doing while I have not been writing

Christmasing - hosting friends and family, making favorite foods, and watching movies when I could. Also finally finishing the book I started in the late summer. 

Newborning - the hours I planned for writing, Estelle has claimed as her own. I don't have any negative feelings about it, I'm just behind in many areas.

Cozying the House - our Christmas decorations this year lit something in me to see how homey our home could really be. As the Christmas lights and textiles came down, the search for lamps, rugs, and other cozy elements began.

Avoiding my Computer - tech caution is coming more naturally to me, and I'm leaning into that. It is freeing to be past the stage of training myself to not be so tech dependent. The downside is not naturally reaching for my computer to research or post. 

Getting Sick and Well - my auto immune symptoms resurfaced after Christmas, which served as a necessary lifestyle reset. Part of the lifestyle reset is spending much more time in the kitchen prepping food. A different kind of creativity.
