On some of my days off I am productive and on others I cannot even say that I worked on knitting or crochet while I watched TV. I have been trying to think of why that is; do I not have a good plan or motivation? Strangely that isn’t it. I have woken up in the mornings and thought about all of the things that I wanted to do that day. I have even set up projects or planned ahead so everything is ready for me but then something happens and I am on the couch carefully selecting a Netflix movie to watch.
Other days, like today, I sleep in and think of nothing but curling up on the couch and watching some dumb movie.Here I am though, its 12:30 and I have successfully made both almond and walnut nut butters and I have veggies roasting in the oven for soup. I have plans for this afternoon to work on a Christmas gift as well.
I can’t even say that my weekend days are balanced, one productive, one sloth like. Yesterday was a great day. Again I woke up wanting to spend the cold rainy day on the couch and, admittedly, work on a kntting project. One of my husband’s friends was going to come over in the morning and help Adam with a dump run. Suddenly Jeremy is not coming and we are going to the big city to go shopping.
I remembered to bring my project so I got a few rows done in the car, we went to the Mall and I got a new pair of shoes ($11 black pumps :D) and some fancy socks. Then we went to Loews and finally got the matching switch plate for the kitchen. We got lunch at 99, one of our favorite places, and then split up - Adam went to BestBuy to look at entertainment stuff and I went to Christmas Tree Shoppes to stock up on unnecessary Tea, cat toys and kitchen supplies. We were home by 5 to relax and watch TV (and continue to work on knitting).
I guess it comes down to what want to get done that day. Sometimes I really should just stay on the couch; maybe I just had the worst week ever or if I am starting to get sick. If nothing is all I do - mission accomplished.
