Time off August 2023

It’s summer break 2023! It’s late August and our last chance to get a vacation before the kids go back to school. We were going to go to Chilliwack to try a deli run by a small jewish cult, but alas it’s like 100 degrees so we’re going to the coast instead!

To get the most out of my time off, I’m going to follow my best practice of pre-writing what I want to get done, and adjust it as I go. This is a combination of time off, and all the stuff for happiness, which I guess gets tangled up with half of my evergreen notes.

I went easy on diet this trip - OK going out for some meals and treats, but no gorging. Which led to this weird win:

• My brain wanted to go to store at 9pm and gorge
• Went to store, bought stuff (mostly healthy)
• But came home and was pretty full so didn’t want to gorge
• Wow, that was great.

Moments

• Arrived: Went to beach and did 30 minutes of meditation on the sunset. It was amazing.

Success Stories

• Bought lots of peas and healthy things at grocery store
• Got dinner before unpacking
• Did much of the cooking and groceries myself. Really enjoyed it! Zach and the kids enjoyed it too.
