I get times like that—especially in the warm summer days. Maybe take walks or try different other activities to declutter your brain.

Thanks for catching that. I love Elizabeth Gilbert, so I don't know how I messed that up. Let's agree that it's menopause brain. 😎

I can somewhat empathize. I liked writing and painting. But we got a new puppy. That threw everything into an upheaval. Slowly getting better. I did publish a newsletter this week. But otherwise nothing. Not even reading.
