Doing nothing

Just popping in to say hello.  This week has been a complete write-off!  DH and I ended up sick, and I was in bed ALL freaking week long.  Seriously, I went into work for an hour on Tuesday (for a client who did not show) and then missed an interview on Wednesday, a full day of work on Thursday, my yoga class in the evening, dinner plans on Friday and hanging out with a friend on Saturday.  I was sick, sick, sick!  It's been a while since I've been sick like that.  The doctor said it was bordering on bronchitis, but I saw him after things had somewhat improved so it may have been bronchitis.  Yuck!

It was so weird having the full week off and doing absolutely nothing.  So far with my time off, I've managed to keep myself busy.  And by busy, I mean doing things, but at a nice leisurely pace.  I haven't been bored at all.  This last week, though, I literally sat on the couch watching TV and slept in bed.  I didn't do cleaning or organizing.  I didn't cook or bake.  I didn't even want to knit or sew.  Pretty much absolutely nothing.  I really don't like doing nothing.  I feel like this week was just a waste of time...  I am really bad at doing nothing.  It's kind of funny, but even for my days off, I have to "plan" down-time for myself.  Otherwise I'll always find something to do.  I'm trying to break out of that a bit, so this week was good in a way.

I really have no idea what this next week holds.  I honestly don't have a single thing on my agenda (apart from my 1 1/2 days of work).  So here's to feeling better and learning how to do nothing!
