What I Missed- and Didn’t- During My Week Off of Medium
the break wasn’t intentional… at first
My husband and I decided to go to Erie last weekend from Saturday morning to Monday night.
We gambled at the Casino, watched the sunrise, and spent a lot of time on the docks around Presque.
We also went to Cleveland Heights for brunch at the Haunted House Restaurant. It’s kind of kitsch with collections of dolls on shelves holding the TVs playing movies on repeat and menu items named for horror movies. Though for a horror movie lover, it’s a fun place to be. I even met Freddy upon exiting!
I’m grateful for the unplanned downtime.
I confess that I hate writing on the Medium app, and the first few days of my time off were not planned. I had even taken a laptop!
I was not aware that the hotel didn’t have WIFI. Reception was bad on the Isle for phones, let alone laptops and car writing time was also impossible.
The past few days were simple laziness. If I don’t write every day, I fall out of practice. If I go longer than two days, it’s easier to keep going.
