It's okay to rest.

Why is it that whenever I see a baby or a puppy yawn my heart melts and I feel all warm inside watching them sigh deeply and surrendering to sleep…but when I feel exhausted it comes with feelings of guilt or defeat? Why do we whisper sweetly and take pictures when Hunter S. Thomcat is asleep in a sunbeam on the kitchen floor, but it’s “weird and a trip hazard” when I sprawl out next him after a particularly carby lunch?

No more guilt. Naps are now adorable for all of us. Resting is fine for everyone. Encouraged, even. This includes you.

I’ll remind you if you remind me.

On a slightly different subject, some of you asked for printed versions of the drawings I’ve made here, so I made a calendar with 12 of my favorites if you want it. It’s 50% off today and the royalties will go to Project Night Night, helping unhoused children. They do amazing work.
