Everyone Needs a “Do Nothing” Day

Today was a day of relaxation for me. I had plenty of things do to around the house, but I chose not to do anything at all. I spent a couple hours with my husband, then he went to take a nap and I sat my happy ass on the couch and binged “The Summer I Turned Pretty”. I had one dog snuggled up to me on the couch and the other one was snoring the day away in his bed.

I deserved this day more than people may think. I have been running myself ragged around here trying to keep everything clean and organized. With 2 kids in the house, that’s near impossible. But I have tried and that’s what counts. Laundry needs to be done. Dishes were starting to pile up in the sink. I’m sure I had somewhere to go, but all of that got set on the back burner and I took a self-care day.

The laundry will still be there. The dishes aren’t going to disappear (unfortunately). If there was actually somewhere I needed to be, I forgot about it anyway. Don’t be so stressed out that you can’t relax when you need to. Take a day for yourself. Go get your nails done. Go get a massage. Spend a day at the beach (weather dependent). Do something that is going to make you feel good…and don’t let anyone or anything ruin it because……….

everyone needs a “do nothing” day.
