Day 145 - Saturday 24th May

“We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing, and inclusion” - Max De Pree (b.1924), author, former CEO of Herman Miller, Inc.

Crikey this is a long prompt. I agree with it though. I love my husband dearly but at the same time I think it is important to have our own interests and so spend some time apart. Other than during the week we do tend to spend most of our time together. I love to craft which I often struggle to get time to do as James wants to be out doing things together as a family. I do try to encourage him to find a hobby of his own but he says he would feel guilty that he would spend time away from us.
Today I had a lovely couple of hours alone in the hairdressers to get my hair dyed – I was beginning to look like a badger!!! I came out feeling revived and refreshed.
