i spent so many years feeling that any down time was considered lazy. and even now, there is this residual guilt...as if i can feel those accusing eyes piercing into me, letting me know that not being productive, not doing, is lazy. it is an unforgivable thing. a taint on character.
busyness.
life was not purposeful, but busy. always having to have actions. to prove how time was spent. it was exhausting.
i worked hard this last week.
really hard.
i work hard every week.
and today, i'm still in pj's. i even drove my boys to work in my pj's. i'm having coffee. eating breakfast. watching some shows. kicked back. thinking of what i might choose to do later in the day if i become so inclined...though at the moment, that seems like it's not going to happen. i want to connect with people. have time to rest. just not be driven DO anything. i may choose something when i feel rested, but it is the being driven that disturbs me.
i am weary. i am worth rest time. even when my house isn't perfect. and while some may think it lazy....oh well, if i'm lazy, they don't have to like me.
