This weekend went through my fingers like water. Absolutely nothing of substance was accomplished this weekend. I spent most of my weekend inside the house. The pool is closed until next year. I had no energy to exercise. We did not go out in the sun. Gabe made a couple of errands, but I stayed home with the girls. Isabel is so moody lately that I cringe at the thought of going out with the girls. Every time I do, I wind up feeling frazzled, not relaxed.
I went out once Sunday afternoon, to buy Paula a pair of sneakers for volleyball. She had practice tonight and her first game is next weekend. That was the most productive thing I did all weekend. Plus a few loads of laundry.
My inactivity was deliberate in part. The past week had been so hectic at work that I needed to unwind. But today I can't help but feel like I squandered my weekend. I don't want to go back to work today. The rush begins anew, as there's several deadlines this week.
At least I did not make a sorry spectacle of myself, like some other people having an aimless weekend.
I always wish on mondays that I had ONE MORE DAY off...just one more day.... to revel in before having to go back to business as usual.
ReplyDeleteI tend to do this with my weekends as well, Inrid. Lots of great plans and things to accomplish, then hour by hour I sit and let them slip away. At 9 o'clock last night I was finally cleaning up the kitchen! Sadly, that's all I got done. And I hate it when I feel like my weekend was wasted, like it didn't really count for anything, so I wonder why I do it.
