All work and no play makes Leisa a dull girl...or something like that.
I'm my mother's daughter. I like to get all the things done! I have a tendency to think of all the things that need to be done and then fill up my days doing all those things until I come to the end of my holidays and think, "Good Lord I'm exhausted! I need a holiday to get over my holiday!"
As I lay here in the hammock I can hear my mind ticking over...
I should really weed that back section next to the carport.
That kale needs harvesting.
I should really turn that veggie patch over...what can I plant in the middle of summer?
That front garden looks like a jungle! Tomorrow I'll get out there and get into it!
I should really go through my wardrobe and cull some of my clothes!
And on and on and on it goes....
I've done things today. I've been for a run, tidied up some of the house, done two loads of washing, made my bed and braved Kmart to buy a little paddle pool to cool off in. But now I've stopped, lay in the hammock and decided I'm going to just lay here and read a couple of chapters of A Clash of Kings. After that I may contemplate my navel and come up with a plan for world peace.
In any case...I need to remember just to stop sometimes.
How about you?
