Thanks for the assignment, it’s fun. I like your list, especially the tea item.

I agree about the naps. Napping has saved my life now that I am in my forties.

This was soooo helpful!
Especially as I decide whether or not to leave the job I’ve had for ten years now for a new job that is very much what I’d LOVE to be doing!
