Yesterday
Got everything done yesterday with plenty of time left over but rather than that time going towards relaxation, it went towards family time. I... look. I enjoy family time, but it's draining. The whole idea of doing my best to hem things in is to have available time to just relax, and I definitely didn't do that.

Today
Today is another day where I'll try to have a rest day, but this time, I definitely need to guard my time. Having family time on the agenda is fair, but I spent hours on it yesterday and it felt like zero hours taking care of myself.
Feelings
I get the feeling like Ren considers these family outings to be recharging, rewarding, and valuable. I also like doing them, but they don't recharge me AT ALL. They drain my tank worse than just about anything. Hell, they drain my tank nearly as corporate meetings.
It also feels like I don't get rewarded at all for doing it, again, because Ren thinks that the reward is the activity itself, but I actually do need affection and not just a verbal "good job this was fun". I mean, if I spend an hour doing family time, that's an hour less private time OR couple's time, both of which recharge me. Ren and I need to figure out a way for us to feel like we're getting both in the day.
Goals
If I can get the tractor today, and if I'm feeling up to it, I'll scrape the terrace garden.
