Ways to mark Solstice

Summer solstice is tomorrow.🤗

There are many ways I have marked this seasonal turning point for myself in the past.

Solstice Time!

I have a (deeply engrained) tendency to get the work done first, then have fun after.

This morning I remembered that I am not alone in that🙏🏼 AND that I was currently running said script!😳

Here’s what I did about it
