I hope you all are recovering well from your chocolate hangovers the day after Valentine’s Day.

I, myself, have decided to take the advice of Dr Daniel Amen, psychiatrist, author, brain expert, and catch up on my sleep. According to him, before Edison’s invention people slept an average of nine hours every night. This, he says, is what our brains actually require to stay healthy.

So, this morning I got to sleep late and feel smart about it. Nice to have a healthy excuse.

I also am taking the day off from a major blog post to work on Suzie’s book. I hope for a long writing weekend.

Who knows what distractions will vie for my time. So far I have the temptations of perfect weather and a car full of gas.

I will be strong.

Being creative by myself without a deadline is different from working for clients at a quiet studio where progress is measured by the hour. Here, nobody is watching.

So, I decided to tell you. Now I have to write. You’re watching.

If you feel inclined to pretend to be a demanding client and verbally look at your watch and tap your feet to keep me on task then feel free in the comments section.

Or you could just encourage me with shout-outs and cheers.

Have a good weekend. I’ll report in Monday.
