Nothingness

Geez it's ridiculous that I even have to remind myself to breath sometimes. You might think I'm exaggerating, but similar to the way I grind my teeth and clench my jaw without noticing, I find myself forgetting to circulate oxygen through my lungs. Why? Oh, because my life is stressful and I have more on my plate than I can handle.

FALSE. My life is amazing and I'll never have more than I can handle unless I bring it on myself (which I think I unconsciously love to do. Sick.)


Today I needed a day of rest and relaxation. I mean that seriously. I think if I don't take some time to do nothing on behalf of my sanity that I might actually blow a fuse, short a circuit, whatever.

So my nothingness is cleaning my room, finishing my book, and turning up my radio full blast (must to the displeasure of my roommates below me. Please, who am I kidding? They love it). Next step: shower.

  1. I totally get the doing nothing thing. My favorite form of doing nothing is to sit on my patio once the 2yo is napping, the 5yo is watching a movie, and the patio is in the shade. I sit and stare at the flowers and hope that my neighbors don't think I need therapy. Sitting out there doing nothing IS my therapy!
