Does anyone ever just take a "lazy" day?

[chickensioux]

Yep, all the time. I get all my "chores" done on some days and leave others days for laziness.

I seriously think companies should give everyone 3 mental health days a year along with sick time and vacation. We get one and it's called a "floating holiday".

Today was one of those days for us. I woke up not feeling all that well, but mainly just down. Didn't get up unitl 12:30 (two hours late for me) and we went back down for a nap at 2. Slept until 5.
Past making supper and cleaning up the kitchen afterwards, I don't intend to do a dang thing today.

I love my floating holiday! I save it and save it and save it until that one perfect day when the kids aren't here and Mike is at work and then I play in the yard and lay in the pool all day.

Also, somehow it happens (about one day a month) that I am here for 24 hours by myself. It is a gift to me from the universe that they all magically disappear and go their own ways for 24 hours and noone says Jennifer, Mommy, or Hey You. I sleep in, I play with my birds, I read a book, I put Mama Mia in the DVD player. I neglect hair, makeup, and sometimes teeth

but I am a renewed human being afterwards. I work between 60 and 70 hours a week - this one day a month is sometimes the only thing between me and total meltdown. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a lazy day.

I have to be really sick for something like that to occur.
