Recovering from Vacation
It’s not uncommon to hear friends and colleagues talk about the great vacation they went on, but they were so exhausted when they got back that they needed a vacation from their vacation.
I’m in the same boat after the bridge tournament. So today, i took a mini vacation. Today all i did was:
- Sleep til noon - hey, give me a break, i was driving most of the night!
- Finish reading the last quarter of The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, which is overdue at the library.
- Blog
- Write up some bridge hands from the tournament
- Drink coffee
- Catch up on RSS feeds
- Chat online
- Call my mom
- Pet the dog, who i think was happy that we returned to him, but i really can’t tell
I most certainly did not:
- Unpack
- Do laundry
- Return the overdue library book
- Play bridge online
- Cook
- Login to work email - that can just wait until tomorrow
- Clean, even though i have a busy week ahead and Lance’s parents coming to visit this weekend (and i know that doesn’t matter to anyone but me, but it matters, to me, and i still didn’t do it today)
It was my mini-recovering-from-vacation vacation, and i needed it!
